Virgin Atlantic's cabin bag allowance is 56x36x23cm, which aligns closely with many US carrier standards - makes sense given their transatlantic focus. Economy Light fare passengers are limited to a smaller bag, but standard economy and above get the full overhead allowance.

Virgin Atlantic flies mainly between the UK and North America, with routes to the US, Caribbean and other destinations. If you're packing for a transatlantic trip and want to keep it to hand luggage only, getting the size right matters more than ever.
