Catalogue size matches

Bags compared with Lufthansa's stored limits

Each bag’s published dimensions are within the limit BagCheck currently stores for Lufthansa in that space. These stored limits are not presented as verified airline limits; check the official policy for the airline’s own wording. A size match is not a guarantee: a packed bag can bulge, and airline staff and bag sizers decide at the airport.

How these examples are chosen

The full lists hold every catalogue bag whose published dimensions are within the limit, including 0 overhead and 0 under-seat close fits with little room to spare. The examples take one bag per bag type, in order of listed capacity, and skip close fits. A bag with no listed capacity still counts and is listed after bags with one. This order reflects listed capacity, not quality, price or popularity.
