At the airport, can your luggage just be a carry-on?

Question

It's been a long time since I've been to the airport.

Answer 1

Yes!

Answer 2

It certainly can,as long as it is within the correct weight and measurements. Some flights are cheaper with carry on only.  

Answer 3

I'll be flying with carry-on on thursday so i have the update. Make sure you don't have razors, lighters or anything else considered a dangerous good in you bag. watch out for liquid restrictions. don't take too big or half-full liquids with you. mostly little travel sizes are best to take with. put them in a see-through plastic bag with zipper and show it separately to the security staff. watch out for overload - too much weight of your carry-on could get really expensive  

Answer 4

Sure! Its far more easy and convenient and there's nothing they could lose.

Answer 5

Of course, as long as it doesn't exceed the maximum size allowed for carry-ons or contain anything that you're not allowed to carry on board the plane.

Answer 6

Yes, but it your bag should be no larger than 45 linear inches (add up the length, width, and height of the bag - if it's more than 45, you'll have to check it). Check the airline's website for specific dimensions.

You *can* have razors and cigarette lighters in your carry on luggage (no "torch" lighters and only safety razors that you use for shaving); here's a list of all prohibited and allowed items: http://www.tsa.dhs.gov/travelers/airtrav...

And there is a liquid restriction - all liquids in carry on bags must be in containers that are 3 fluid ounces or smaller in size. These containers must fit comfortably into a quart-sized, clear, seal-able baggie, and only one baggie per passenger is allowed: http://www.tsa.dhs.gov/311/index.shtm

Hope this has helped.

Answer 7

Yes, if it can fit in the overhead storage area. To carry on, all liquids must be in bottles smaller than 3 oz. Otherwise they throw it away or it has to be checked.
