Can this be checked on a plane without extra charges (due to size)?

I would say no, cause its really big, it states 40x20x10 full but you can stuff it bigger to about 41x22x14. check with the airlines for the over size limits

I'm sorry I don't fly. I would suggest getting the measurements of the carrier then call the airline.

You should be able to. It has a small battery in it and as long as it's in carry on there shouldn't be a problem. You could call the airline to be sure.

Verify with TSA. But I believe no. http://www.tsa.gov/traveler-information/prohibited-items#4

Don't remember dimensions of package; however, do not think it would qualify for carry-on, but certainly could be checked.

I believe so, with some many problems with the airlines it is better to check with your airline. I love my Airtamer, take it everywhere!!

I haven't tried it, but the manufacturers website indicated it meets TSA reqs for checked luggage.

Do you mean put it in a carry on bag or carry it loose? Best to check with the airline. if It's shorter than the max bag length you could always bag it. I checked it when I flew.

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.

Yes. Think it's actually better to do that. Otherwise the airline sees a big bag and makes you check it in as oversize luggage. This may have just been our experience with a particular airline but we were not happy to pay 100 euros!

probably not, but you can call the airline carrier regarding its weight and dimensions

I am not sure. You may want to check with the airlines to see what is acceptable to travel with.

I have....via multiple airlines and it depends on the airline, but you're curely going to have some sort of extra charge. Some will have a specific bike box charge....others may charge for being oversized based on dimensions, not weight. Best I can say is to read through the Baggage section of the airline's website. Some airlines are pretty ridiculous and make paying $50 more for a ticket on a different flight the better deal when they're charging $200 for a bike box.

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.

My mother took her's on the plane last time she flew. I'm sure they will check-it going thru security, but there isn't anything pointy on it.

Absolutely, I do it all the time! If you're still unsure my advice is to double check the airline's carry on restrictions (since some are different dimensions), and as a rule of thumb try not to over stuff it.

The case is quite large and would require to be checked. Some very large plane may accommodate as a carry on, but all other flights would see this checked.
