21-December-2006 : United States Transportation Safety Administration – Know The Rules!

How many times have you packed and wished you could bring your roll-aboard carry-on, your brief case and a bag (that meets the legal carry on size) full of camera on board? Admit it, you’ve wished this quite a few times if you have flown more than twice in the past few years. Well, there is a little know rule the TSA has and almost no airlines argue with…..it turns out YOU CAN BRING ALL THIS!

Yep, that’s right, the TSA Guideline allow for one carry on, one personal item (brief case, book bag, laptop bag, etc) and one full size carry on with photographic equipment. While the TSA guidelines do offer an out by saying check with your airlines first, when presented with a print out of the TSA carry on allowance, and exemption for photographic equipment, I have never had a gate agent go against the printed rules. Below is a link to the TSA guidelines PRINT IT OUT AND CARRY IT WITH YOU AT ALL TIMES
