What's a 'cabin baggage allowance'?

Cabin baggage allowance refers to the size and weight limits for items you can bring into the aircraft cabin. Airlines specify these dimensions to ensure safety, space, and efficient boarding. Wizz Air's rule highlights that even personal items like neck pillows must fit within this allowance, or passengers face additional charges.
