I thought I read some were that this was small enough to be TSA approved for flight. Does anyone know if this is true.

They were thinking about making small blades legal but they aren't. My swiss army classic was confiscated sept 5th 2014 at Denver

Really it depends on the TSA person and the airport your going on. If its a smaller airport probably if its one like LAX probably not. I would put it in my checked luggage just to be safe.

Yes, that's why I bought it. I've carried it on many times, no problem. It is small enough it will fit any airlines carry on restrictions.

Hi Vincent!Maureen here from The Friendly Swede:-) My sincere apologies for missing your question previously! That answer is unknown. I would think if the contents were scanned, it would not pass the stringent US FAA rules. You could check with the FAA/TSA on that for the best answer though. Anything else, please let me know here at this link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/contact-seller/contact-seller.html/ref=aag_m_fi?ie=UTF8&asin;=&isCBA;=&isPopup;=&marketplaceID;=ATVPDKIKX0DER&orderID;=&sellerID;=AP0GL3AYI3XW1Have a good day!Maureen / The Friendly Swede Hi Vincent!Maureen here from The Friendly Swede:-) My sincere apologies for missing your question previously!

Possibly, But even though the manufacturer claims it's TSA approved - TSA confiscated mine. I even had the original packaging. I contacted the company, but they never replied.

A message from the manufacturer: While flying with our tools it is important to stay informed&#8203;&#8203;&#8203;. Though TSA does not provide an official approval certificate on any of its items, the only thing we can ensure is that our tools will fit inside of their guidelines. Most TSA Agents are uninformed themselves and will use a conservative approach&#8203; when dealing with an unknown situation. It's a lot easier for them to say something is prohibited and move on than doing their due diligence. &#8203;According to the official TSA website (http://www.tsa.gov/traveler-information/prohibited-items)&#8203; Scissors - metal with pointed tips and blades shorter than 4 inches are allowed, but blades longer than 4 inches are prohibited NO OK Our tools meet the guidelines because 1. There are no actual "blades" or sharp edges, the entire unit is rounded off with soft corners 2. The entire tool isn't longer than 4 inches. Metal with pointed tips shorter than 4 inches is very much permitted. These 2 points alone should be enough to make your case. Remember, TSA Agents don't have these rules memorized, so it is important that you do!

In all honesty I am not sure but i would believe that an XS would be airline approved as it is not large at all.

It does meet TSA requirements. I've been to 4 airports domestically and haven't had any issues. This is a great bag, it fits a lot of items.

I'm not sure if it is approved, but it fits well in seats. I've used it on 737, 777, and regional jets without issue.

Pretty small. Yes, you can carry it on your bag perfectly. You won't have any problem taking with you in the plane

I've never had them questioned and usually have one in my bag. That said there is nothing more consistent than the inconsistency of the TSA. Hope that helps.

I had no issues flying with it from Chicago to Colorado. The larger model is not TSA approved though.

The travel size is approved becasue it is not larger than 4 ounces. The color of the bottle or cap has no bearing. The TSA agent apparently is making his own rules. Ask to speak to the agent's supervisor.

Yes I have traveled a few times with this case on airlines without any issues. It meets TSA travel requirements. Make sure to check your carrier guidelines since they may vary, but for the most part have it in your check in baggage and notify the attendee during check in and they will provide you with a card to fill out. It is perfect for flying.

I think that it is longer than is actually authorized and it won't fit in all overhead compartments. Every time I've tried, they've allowed me to carry it on and stow it in the cabin but you might have different luck.

I used to work for TSA. This is a prohibited item and cannot be taken aboard or packed in your checked luggage. If found, it will be confiscated and destroyed.

Its not oversized. Period. Ive traveled with it. As long as its weight is within limits, most airlines will take it.
