The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether her Department plans to amend regulations on luggage sizes for short haul air travel.

Answered by Keir Mather

The Department is not currently planning to amend regulations on luggage sizes for short haul air travel. As the aviation industry in the UK operates almost entirely in the private sector, permitted luggage sizes are a commercial decision for each airline.
