Cabin baggage, also called carry-on baggage or hand luggage, is the luggage and personal items that passengers are allowed to bring into the passenger cabin of an airplane.
For your upcoming Turkish Airlines flight and your intention to bring fragile items as cabin baggage, it's important to know that Turkish Airlines primarily uses a piece and weight baggage concept for checked baggage. The maximum weight for one piece of checked baggage in Economy Class is 23 kg, while it is 32 kg in Business Class. Furthermore, the maximum dimension for one piece of checked baggage should not exceed 158 cm.
There is specific guidance provided for cabin baggage and carrying fragile items. However, the dimensions and weight restrictions for cabin baggage are not explicitly mentioned in the provided information. You should contact Turkish Airlines directly or visit their official website to ensure that your fragile items meet cabin baggage requirements. They will provide you with the most accurate and up-to-date information on cabin baggage specifications, including dimensions and weight limits, to ensure a safe and trouble-free journey with your fragile items.
