Is Qatar's carry-on allowance 20" maximum height (and no combined length)? Is it strictly enforced?
Qatar's carry-on baggage allowance is:
Maximum dimensions for each piece of hand baggage are 50x37x25cm (20x15x10in);
Almost all other airlines (updated May 15, 2019) have at least 21.5" height for carry-on luggage. Also, if it were a combined measurement, this wouldn't be a problem, but it seems like the maximum height is fixed at 20".
Why is Qatar's maximum height for carry-on luggage only 20"? Do passengers with carry-on bags that are 21" have to have them checked in? Anyone have experience with Qatar?

As for your cabin baggage, your checked luggage has strict limitation, unless you want to pay additional fees. Indeed your hold bagage must not exceed 158 cm cumulated (width + height + length) and the weight must not be above 23 kg each.Is Qadar | Tulsi Kumar, Darshan Raval | Sachet-Parampara | Sayeed Quadri | Arvindr K | Bhushan K
