In general, the airline permits a checked bag of 208 cm in total of three dimensions \u2013 height, length and width. This permissible dimension includes that of the handle, wheels and outer pockets. A larger checked bag measuring a total of 230 cm incurs additional charges. Currently, British Airways does not charge additional fees for a larger checked bag of this dimension.
