does Calafia airlines allow a personal item?

From Airlines-airports.com:

One piece of hand baggage is allowed for travelling on routes covered by cessna 208 Carvan aircraft may carry up to 5 kg and travelling for Embraer 120 or Embraer 145 aircraft may carry up to 10 kilograms. It should be stowed under the seat in front of you or in the overhead bins.

so as per the comment, they're much stricter on the Cessnas. You may however have them giving you some leniency, but if it's full or a problem, they're going to point to their rules :/

edit: found their official site with their rules
