Thinking seriously of getting this... but need to know if it meets current (Dec. 2nd, 2014) airline size limitations for carry on?

I've used it several times as a carry on without any problems. Only once was I asked to check it right before I walked on the plane but only because the storage bins were all full. Flying out again in two weeks so I'm curious to see anything has changed as of dec 2nd.

never taken this on a flight, so I have not checked on airline limitations. Sorry I can not help with this question

Yes, didn't had a chance to fly yet after Dec. But never had any problem with it.

This size is too thick for airline carry on regulations. I have flown locally and internationally and have not been refused. There have been times when I had to insist it was okay. BS. and got away with it. Lately, airlines have been stricter on carry on sizes so I've had to downsize to avoid hassles. Again. I haven't been refused, yet. But, it's a risk as technically the dimensions are too large.

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.

I haven't used it as such yet but the size is what the airlines require which is one of the reasons I purchased it. The quality is very good the shipping was fast. I would recommend. I hope this helps you.

No. It does meet most airline carry on size for 47"; keep in mind you could go all the way up to 51" overall size due to the fact the it is a soft sided garment bag. P.s. use maxpedition cubiods and/or tactical toiletry bag, makes life so much easier. In my experience no one ever check the size. Plus if it is a full flight like they are usually certain airlines will check your carry on luggage for free at the gate as a courtesy for allowing more space for other passengers. Don't sweat it. I last flow in June 2014.

From my experiences the bag may be a little big to meet the airlines requirements for carry-on luggage. Each airlines post thier size restrictions online; may be helpful.

I would think so, does the merchant disclose the dimensions ? Does the airline disclose the size requirements of a carry on? There's your answer

Hi Kathi - I'm in Australia and it's too large for carry on luggage based on the carry on size limitations here and I'm guessing it would be similar for most countries so I'm going to say no it's not appropriate to use as carry on luggage.

I would not chance it. It is too soft to face the airlines and too big for carry on.

I think this item would be too bulky for carry-on, probably would not meet airline size limits. I don't think I would check it, unless you can pack in large suitcase.

It's been awhile since I received this item, but my guess is that it's about the size of two very large suitcases. Not exactly carry on and I'm guessing the airline you'll be traveling on would charge you extra. It's a great item and very comfortable but is bulky and takes a lot of space to store. Hope this helps.

I don`t think so (not full). I have the Medium, that is exactly carry on size. Just look at the size?!

The bag itself is rather long. 36"x17"x12" from what im reading. American Airlines limits for carry on luggage is 22"x14"x9". By paper you cannot take it on a plane. now it has been a while since I have seen my bag but I do believe I will fit, however I feel as though they will make you check it at the loading terminal if there are to many passangers or they see that it is to big. My recommendation would be to not to take it on a plane.

I don't remember the exact dimensions but it was smaller than I thought it would be due to the compression packaging. I think you could probably fit it into a carry-on sized bag but allowed sizes vary per airline. Sorry I couldn't be of more help, got it over a year ago. Maybe you can contact the manufacturer to get an exact dimension?

This is too big to be used as carry on. You can use it for checked luggage. I have travelled internationally with this and checked in this bag.

I think it'd be much too big to bring as a carry on. I'm not sure I'd trust baggage handlers. I mean, it is pretty durable, but I've seen the way they pitch stuff around. It's durable plastic but still plastic. It's withstood us beating the crap out of it for 5 months.

This bag is 9X 19 X 15 1/2" and the maximum for carry on luggage with United is : The maximum combined linear measurement (length + width + height) of carry-on bags must not exceed 14 inches x 9 inches x 22 inches (23 x 35 x 56 cm) or 45 linear inches (114 cm).The combined measure is just under the limit of 45". My advice would be to check with the airline regarding the size of the jet. Sometimes smaller jets will make this size go in the cargo area.
