| General Rules (common across most European railways)  

• Number of items: Usually recommended to bring no more than 2 large pieces of luggage + 1 small hand bag. Bringing too many items can make it difficult to move around.  
• Suggested size: Similar to airline checked baggage size (approx. 85 x 55 x 35 cm).  
• Weight limit: No strict rules, but you must be able to lift and place your luggage by yourself.  
• Placement: Luggage can be stored on racks inside the carriage, overhead shelves, or in the space between two seat rows.  

| Important Notes  

• Low-cost train operators (e.g. OUIGO, Avlo)  

  The cheapest fare categories may not include large luggage, allowing only one small hand bag (such as a backpack).  

  If you need to bring large luggage, you must purchase an add-on. Always check the fare conditions when booking to avoid extra charges or being denied boarding.  

• Night trains (e.g. Nightjet, Intercités de nuit)  

  Space is limited. It’s best to travel light and bring smaller bags.  

• Self-handling  

  European train stations usually do not provide luggage check-in or porter services. Choose luggage that is easy to carry or roll by yourself.
