    Default Large mondo bag as carry on?

    Has anyone used one as carry on?
    Was wondering if I could use one if I didn`t stuff it.
    Thanks Gale

    I haven't used one as a carry on. But I can get 15 pounds of stuff in it or a large queen quilt.

    I think you can use whatever you want as a carry on as long as it meets the size requirement. I just saw on the news yesterday that the airlines are talking about reducing the allowed size of a carry on.

    As long as it fits in the box that is near security, it is ok. Advantage is that it can change shapes and fit, hard sides cannot move.

    I would contact the airline you will be flying on. Each should have a website and see what their dimensions are. What flys on "A" may have to be checked on "B".

    The airlines are really getting picky about the size of carry ons...They have a new size rule and it is smaller then it was...
