Some international airlines allow 12–14kg of cabin baggage and do not strictly enforce the limit. Is Vietnam Airlines being too stringent?

Strict control of cabin baggage is essential to ensure flight and passenger safety, and it is a standard practice across the industry.

In reality, cabin baggage policies vary widely. While some carriers allow 12–14kg, many others set a total limit of just 7kg—significantly less than Vietnam Airlines’ 10kg policy.
