British Airways' rules for cabin bags are quite unambiguous:
These allowances also apply on our hand baggage only (Basic) fares, available on selected British Airways short and long haul flights.
- Your bags must fit into the baggage gauge at check-in (including handles, pockets and wheels).
- You must be able to lift your bags into the overhead locker by yourself.
