Pluto has five satellites(moon) which are Charon, Styx, Nix, Kerberos and Hydra out of which Charon is the Biggest. However, It is approximately half of pluto. If the Charon was bigger than pluto, We would probably be seeing pluto rotating around Charon. This is because,Charon would have more gravitional force than that of pluto as Its size would be bigger. Simply put, Bigger things dont revolve around smaller things. So, Pluto's moons are not bigger than Pluto.

Which moons are larger than planets?
Pluto's equatorial diameter is 2,274 km. The diameter of Earth's moon is 3,476 km. Jupiter has four moons larger than Pluto:-Ganymede - diameter 5,262 kmCallisto - diameter 4,800 kmIo - diameter 3,630 kmEuropa - diameter 3,138 kmSaturn has one moon larger than Pluto - Titan - diameter 5,150 kmNeptune has one moon larger than Pluto - Triton - diameter 2,700 kmThus, there are seven moons larger than Pluto in our Solar System.
True or false Earth's moon is larger than Pluto?
true
How much larger is th earths diameter than the Moon's?
Just a Taint Bigger
Is there a moon larger than earth?
NO......... Ganymede, a moon of Jupiter, is the largest in this solar system. At 5,268 km at the equator, it is larger than Mercury, the dwarf planet Pluto, and three times larger than the Moon orbiting Earth. Even it is 3 times larger than earth's moon it is still not big enough to oversize earth.
Are Triton Ganymede and Titan larger that Mercury and Pluto?
They are larger than Pluto, but only Titan and Ganymede are larger than Mercury. Triton is smallerthan Mercury.

How much bigger is our moon than Pluto?
Pluto has 3 moons, and all of them are smaller than Pluto. The largest moon, Charon, is about half the diameter of Pluto.
Is the Earth's moon smaller than Pluto?
it has a one fifth mass of earths moon and one third volume of earths moon
Is Pluto less than two thirds the size of earths moon?
The average diameter of Pluto is 67.51% the diameter of the moon. This is just barley less than two-thirds the size of the moon. If you look at volume, Pluto has 30% the volume of the moon, so, by volume, Pluto is much less than two-thirds the size of Earth's moon. (If you look at mass, Pluto is much less massive, having only 17.89% the mass of the moon.)
Does Pluto have any moons bigger than itself?
No. If the object acompanying Pluto was larger than it, then Pluto would be the moon. Pluto's largest moon, Charon, has a little more than half of Pluto's diameter.
