Luggage Sizes Help!


JayKay

Recommended Posts

Ladies I need some advice!  I have not traveled to often, and not for many years.  I have found a bag I love and would like to use as a carry on. Here's the dilemma.  The bag is slightly bigger then the size listed for a carry on for our plane.  Do any of you seasoned travelers know if this will be a problem? I don't want to get to the airport and have to check it and pay for it!

 

The carry on dimensions listed for our plane are:

 

9in x 16in x 20in

 

The dimensions of the bag I love are:

 

9.5in x 14.5in x 21in

 

Any advice would be appreciated!

They have this metal thing where you go through security and it's supposed to be a size guide for your carry on. If it can fit into it then it's fine. I don't think an extra inch is going to be a deal breaker and you probably will still be able to squeeze it in there.

 

All the flights I go on always seem to have visibly oversized carry ons stuffed in the top compartments. Occasionally if they run out of room in the compartments and there is just no way to squish and squeeze anymore, I've seen them tell the owners of the oversized carry ons to that they need to check them in but other than that, they usually let it slide but I guess that'll depend on the airline and the mood of the staff.

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
