can this bag be taken as check in luggage in flight

Sure. The shoulder straps hooks are plastic, and sometimes pop off, but if you stowed the strap in the bag, shouldn't be a problem. No pockets at all, strictly a duffle bag.

I thought that carry on bags have to fit in the rectangular form they have on display near the check in area. The rectangular form is the size of most small, upright pull bags. This bag is definitely way too long. I know everyone else is saying yes, but I would check with the individual airline.

Yes it can just be careful of the weight. If you go over 50lbs you might have to pay extra.

I just flew with it from Houston via Frankfurt to Bulgaria(March 1st, 2013). That was my big concern as well, but in Houston the Lufthansa staff did not even mention the size of the bag. The bag is solid and looks like it will be my travel choice for a long-long time.

I've used this bag as a carryon/my main travel bag for a number of airlines (american, us airway, southwest, airtran, and jetblue). Exception is when I flew Frontier. They made me check the bag.

Yes it is. It is compact and easy can be carried on or checked depending on the airline.

No it needs to be checked as a bag. It will count as one of your baggage totals.

It depends. Some airlines apply charges for the dimension. Verify the luggage policies of yor interest airline. Regards

No. Its dimensions are larger than the ones allowed by the airlines. It will have to be checked in at the counter.

It should be okay for it to travel as checked luggage if you have a proper hard case for it.

if you check it in as baggage I do not see why not. If you are transporting firearms make sure you have a lock on it and you have TSA inspect everything before U lock it and walk away.

You can't gate check this. Not because of the product; because only strollers and car seats are "exclusion" items that don't count toward any bag limits and can both be gate checked. This is too big to classify as a carry-on bag that could be gate-checked as well. Nor would you want to lug this heavy thing through the airport. It can be checked with regular luggage at the ticketing counter.

Probably not (I don't have a full size suitcase so I am not positive), but I have flown with it. We put it in the synch up bag it came in and were able to check it like that.

It might fit in a checked bag, but it would most likely be too tall for carry-on. It's very compact when rolled up, but the height would be the determining factor, as the poles are rigid and cannot be folded down any further.

You can carry it on the plane and put it under the seat or above in the storage compartments. Or you can put it inside your carry on bag. I would not put it in a checked bag though incase your bag comes up missing or misses your flight (I've had that happen before and we got our bags a couple days later).

I imagine so if you put it in a suitcase you are checking in, not a carry on.

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.

Sorry I don't know the answer to this question. I have never placed it in checked luggage.

I think if you leave all the pieces separate you should be able to. I'd put the gizmo in the checked bags and the other in 2 separate baggies in your carry on. Good luck. Call the airline and make sure.
