The verdict, explained

At 21x13.5x9", the U.S. Traveler Rio Expandable fits inside Transavia's 21.6x15.7x9.8" carry-on allowance with about 0.6" to spare on its tightest side. It should slide into the overhead bin without trouble at the gate sizer. On Transavia: Only a small accessory is free on the basic fare. It is too large for Transavia's under-seat personal-item space, so it has to go overhead or be checked.
