Every passenger gets one carry-on bag, plus a personal item like a purse or laptop bag. Think of your carry-on as the reliable friend who holds your essentials—a book, snacks, and that emergency phone charger. The dimensions are generous: it should fit in the overhead rack or under your seat, roughly the size of a standard gym duffel. Pro tip: Keep your carry-on light, because you’ll need to hoist it above your head when the bus is rocking.
The Personal Item: Your Secret Weapon
Your personal item is the wild card—a backpack, a tote, or even a small cooler bag for road-trip snacks. Peter Pan doesn’t weigh it, so feel free to stuff it with a sweater, headphones, and a travel pillow. Just remember: you’ll have to keep it on your lap or between your feet, so avoid bringing a harp (yes, that’s a real policy exception). Fun fact: the personal item rule is the same for Greyhound, but Peter Pan is slightly more lenient about “lumpy” bags.
