Airlines are Cracking Down! 2024 Carry-on Changes, and How to be Prepared

[@supercaptainbatdoggy]

Airline: We're sorry sir, but your carry on is too heavy to take on the plane...You'll have to check it in (for a fee), which is going on the same plane." 🤦

[@abc-wv4in]

Delta's website says carry-on max is 22"x14"x9" including wheels and handles (November 2024). Some of the video info is incorrect.

[@eclairtreo]

Not true according to UAL own website for 2024. Carry on dimensions listed are still 22"x14"x9" same as they have been. Same thing for personal item dimensions.

[@Nomad-ep9tq]

Wear a multi-pocket vest and fill it with heavy items. Once you’re in the airplane, you can transfer those heavy items back into your carry on luggage.

[@marievilla3348]

that’s what I did. I wear jacket with the pocket and cargo style pants 😅❤ thanks

[@suemeyer8989]

Do they make you take out the things in your jacket vest? I think this seems like good idea

[@33piolin]

@@suemeyer8989No, just take off vest and send thru xray.

[@supercaptainbatdoggy]

Watch what you say on here. Sooner or later someone will see it, and they'll begin charging for that too. Dont give them any ideas. 😂🙄

[@besafe9]

Keep your extra crap out of the overhead bins so someone who is playing fair has space put their one bag. Do not be a selfish jerk.

[@julespeace684]

I’ve had airlines steal things from my checked luggage. Yes, it was Spirt! Never again. One time stupidly.🤦🏽‍♀️

[@blacksorrento4719]

Be aware of changed airline rules. Never assume. Don’t get smart mouthed with security, they are there to do a job. Dress appropriately for the country you are visiting, what is okay for your country, may not be in theirs, do your research, cultures differ. Double check on whether visas are needed, whilst you can get them online, some may take 24hrs to process. Remember it’s not just about buying the ticket, having a passport and packing luggage, these days there are many other things to consider. Use a list & ✅

I flew Alaska this week. They are it enforcing the dimensions! Enforce the rules. I saw a lot of people with huge suitcases that did not fit in the sample dimension container! Is frustrating because they keep begging people to volunteer checking in their bags so there is no motivation to comply.

[@marilynsue4273]

Medications, etc. should be in personal item in case your bag gets gate-checked.

[@t_cheating8239]

This why you check in before you come in. You can avoid the desk and not worry. And then you can check it at the gate if needed.

[@andreaelizabeth5494]

If you hate check you will be charged the most

[@gijoyjoy]

It’s annoying that you say in the video, “lithium batteries over a certain wattage are prohibited” but you don’t say what that wattage is.

[@thomas-xj1hs]

purse = handbag. Helpful if measures were listed in metric as this is the international norm. Thanks

[@erikalulea3608]

One issue though , not all so called window seats are ACTUALLY window seat . So they really need to make it clear where those seats are on the plane.

[@NikkiCN]

Thank you

[@labitcoineragt3596]

This is false, the height for example can’t exceed 22 inches in this video they say 20 inches. The new changes set a maximum but also a minimum and it requires airlines to not force people to have carry ons smaller than 20 and bigger than 22. If the video makers can’t get that right …

[@rampar77]

What is the difference.I have never seen any one checked size of carryon. I hadidea why they allowed guitar onboard.

[@neresq]

Incorrect info given.

[@dondgc2298]

Which info?

[@neresq]

@@dondgc2298 Delta has not instituted those new carry-on limitations. Just flew domestic with them this month and same 22" height/45" total as always.

[@dondgc2298]

@@neresq thanks for clarifying!

[@lap8329]

Not necessarily. Depends on the airline, the latest changes, how fully booked a flight may be.. Things are getting tighter and tighter all the time. Never take anything for granted,and check carefully before each flight. Make sure your critically urgent stuff--medications, ID, phone, are in a small bag that will remain on your person.

[@eclairtreo]

@@dondgc2298 United's own website lists 22"x 14" x 9" so nothing has changed. This info is from June 2, 2024. Things may change, but so far, they have not.

[@LynnDeatherage-q3k]

Then why does flight attendant has on and used it on the passager who threw a drink at the flight attendant.

[@billroettgen7099]

What is the limit on inaccuracies? I think this piece exceeds those limits. What is true, is pretty inane. You can do better - and should.

[@alexafernandez5743]

God how many times she mentioned the weight and the scale

[@bsdontop1000]

So everyone who bought 21 inch bags that were correct now are forced to buy more suit cases

[@sovyc977]

I just bought a 21.5 height. Sad. My trip will be October.

[@bsdontop1000]

@@sovyc977 yea thats the size of mine too

[@wanderinggypsydeb]

Just got back from a flight to Vancouver on West Jet. Both our carry on bags had to be checked, too big. They were 22x14x9

[@bsdontop1000]

@@wanderinggypsydeb 😤😤😤 I think mine is between 21 and 22 mannnnn I could bearly fit everything in that lol let alone a 20 inch

[@sovyc977]

@wanderinggypsydeb it's good that your luggage is not lost. Thanks for the measurements.

[@phillaing3591]

H x W x L.... what are they ?

[@caroline_catbridges_kitty5384]

This whole video stressed me out. 😭

[@alanwood4968]

You should have been doing it years ago but you let it keep doing it and doing it. I can understand for a baby or some one who has or needs help. But these woman and men to a lesser extent are at it all all the time and sometimes there isn't room for a small bag of passports tickets etc.

[@besafe9]

Yes, crackdown even harder. Don't travel with so much crap.
