Here are the bullet points from Delta's web site:
  • Not exceed 45 inches (length + width + height), or 115 cm.
  • Fit easily in our SizeCheck® unit (approximately 22"x14"x9", or 56x36x23 cm).
  • Fit in an overhead bin or underneath the seat in front of you.

Hi, There is a definite size for carry on luggage.  You can check the airline website to see what their requirements/restrictions are.

As a rule of thumb the bag cannot weight more than 35 LBS, 24 length x 15.5 width x 9.5 depth.

 

Lots of things are changing for bags and carry=on's check the airline website before you go.
