ON THE ROAD
Cutting Those Carry-Ons Down to Size

“THE law of unforeseen consequences came to mind the other day as I was reading through a bill recently introduced in Congress that addresses the problem of too many oversize carry-on bags. The bill would standardize the size of carry-on items and require the Transportation Security Administration to enforce limits by measuring the bags at its checkpoints.” Read the entire article @ the NYTimes.

Read the full text of the bill – Securing Cabin Baggage Act – here. Then, post your thoughts in the TOM BIHN Forums.

Our Aeronaut, Tri-Star, Checkpoint Flyer and Western Flyer carry-on travel bags meet the size requirements outlined in the bill.



Above: The Aeronaut also meets Heathrow requirements.
