I guess it depends on your point of departure but ours have never been measured at either MEL, DXB OR IST. Our carry ons were weighed in MEL.

They were very very generous last week when we were flying out of JFK in F.

I have a Rimowa 32" that probably exceeds that if you include the wheels - it's never been an issue. But watch your weight...big suitcases fill up and you may have issues if any one piece is more than 32kg (even if you have the allowance)!

I think this is more to do with policing checking in something very thin and long - like a flat screen TV (yes, it happens a fair amount).
