The new rules imposed by the SNCF came into force in February 2024, with an adjustment period allowing for tolerance. The carrier has announced that it will end this period.

The rules allow for a maximum of:

• 2 pieces of luggage up to 70 x 90 x 50 cm (suitcase, hiking bag, sports bag, etc.);
• 1 hand luggage with a maximum size of 40 x 30 x 15 cm (backpack, bag, handbag, computer bag, etc.).

All baggage must be tagged.

The carrier's general instructions are: " You just need to be able to carry all your luggage yourself at once. ”

Travelers who do not comply with the new baggage policy are subject to a fine of €50 per piece of luggage non-compliant or surplus (150 euros for luggage that interferes with the circulation in the corridors).
