Used for airplane travel: Does it fit inside a large suitcase or did you have to check it as a separate piece of luggage (at extra cost)?

See dimensions. It doesn't fit into a suitcase. I always separately check it.

I think it might be just slightly to big for a large suit case. I'm not for sure as I don't have a large one to try out for you:/ love the product though. Must easier than my paknplay.

I can fit it into a large hard suitcase that I have, but it is the only one that it fits inside of. I would check the dimensions of the crib against those of your suitcases, mainly because it has to be rectangular, it can't be sort of rounded at the top. Hope this helps!

I checked it as a separate piece and called it a "baby item". I have never been charged for it!

We have not ever tried to use it as a carry on, so I can't answer that part but we have checked it, fully extended & were not charged an oversize fee. Use zip ties in the extra holes, though, to prevent your rods getting broken should they decide to inspect it. It has worked out great for our offshore poles.

I wound up leaving it at home because it seemed a transit hazard to anyone trying to get across you to get to the aisle in coach. Don't know if the Airlines have any specific policy, but figured it wasn't worth it's weight and space in a carryon on top of being a possible hazard. Lufthansa, for ex., only allowed 18lbs for carryon on transatlantic flight, and this weighed c. 2lbs.

I am almost certain this would have to be checked in. The pictures don't give you a true idea of how big this case is, it's a monster. I have not been on a flight in about 6 years, and I don't think this would be allowed as carry on, but I could be wrong. Please let me know if I can be more help. I did a lot of research on this case and others, and buying this case was a little bit of a gamble, but so far I have no regrets buying it.

Elliot is correct, it may get scrutinized, I was told it was very dense and the TSA would appreciate it being taken out of your bag and placed separately like a laptop. I started doing that and now have no problem.

I sometimes have trouble getting in back in its own bag...operator error, not a problem with the tent. I do not think it would travel well in a average size suitcase but it is VERY flexible. I would think you could check it in its original bag as an additional piece of luggage and its weight is minimal. Sorry I could not help more.

Hi Abby, It won't fold or fit in a carryon or regular suitcase. My wife just carried on the plane.

I have travelled with this case in the overhead compartments. Bear in mind that different airlines and indeed even different planes allow different size cabin luggage. I have had to put it in the hold on small planes (Dash 8) but they put that in individually, luggage was collected from me on the Tarmac and returned to me on the Tarmac, not actually checked luggage. On the larger planes it is no problem but you have to watch your weight limit!

I had it in the luggage so i did not put it my carry on but I'm leaning towards you might run the risk of it being taken. Also the size may Exceed the amount of liquid your allowed to bring on an airplane.

Since it comes put together I would say it is too big to go on the plane or fit in a suitcase.

Question for the 2 people who answered, "Yes": Yes it can be taken on flights as a check in or Yes it has prohibited items per TSA?

Suitcase would have to be large. I have carried it as my 2nd carry on through an airport. It is quite heavy, but if you can piggyback it to a roller bag, it is manageable. Security had to pull out the pump to inspect it. Prefer to travel without it, but if you need it, you need it.

The inside is as Joyce says it is. I do like it, but I have had people at the airports look at it and want it to be placed in the carry on baggage check. I'm not sure if it's because it's red with the grey stripe in the center, and it appears larger than say a black bag with the same dimensions. I have got it stuck in the baggage check and had trouble getting it out by using that extra zipper width.

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

I don't think it will fit in a suitcase. It's pretty wide. It fits big butts! :)

i had it, along with other electronics, in my suitcase when i checked my bag and my bag was searched by TSA. it was allowed because it was still in my bag when i got my bag at my destination

On a jet, yes. Not on one of those commuter planes. It looks like a duffel back when rolled up and can fit in the overhead, or at worst you can gate check it. We've traveled internationally with ours twice.
