Can you check in a bag and have a carry-on at the airport?

Question

The airline rules are always changing I never know what the current ones are. Im leaving tomorow and my mom said that there is a new rule that you cant have a carry-on anymore, is this true

Answer 1

no i just went on a trip and i had a carry one but there are rules about ur carry on i would check with ur airline

Answer 2

No, it's not true. You can have one carry-on and one check-in. There is a fee if you have a second check-in bag.

One check-in and one carry-on is free.

You can also bring a small backpack or bag with you and keep it with you in your seat.

Best of luck

Answer 3

You're allowed to check in any luggage 50 pounds and under. You can bring on only one carry-on per person. Make sure you have no liquids in your carry-on or you'll have to throw it away.  

Answer 4

on delta, you can have 2 carry on items. what i do is put the smaller carry on bag(such as a purse) inside my bigger one(the one with magazines and such) and then take it out once i am on the plane.

Answer 5

No you can have a carry on and a check in.  $25 fee for the SECOND checked bag, as of May 2008.

Answer 6

No that's not true at least where i live (Florida) usually you can check-in two bags (each 50lbs.) and have a smaller bag for carry on.... just check the website of the airplane company that your flying with, they will have all the info on there!!!!  

Answer 7

it's not true!  your aloud to have a carryon, and check with your airline about bag fees, because some don't charge for your checked bag, and airlines like american are charging $15 for the first checked bag, and $25 for the second checked bag.
