Make sure if you are traveling on a metric Airline that you meet the metric limits. I got burned on my last Air Canada flight to dive wrecks in Newfoundland. AC policy: A standard carry-on bag measures 55 cm (21.5 in) in height, 23 cm (9 in) in depth, and 40 cm (15.5 in) in width, while a personal item adheres to the following dimensions: 33 cm (13 in) in height, 16 cm (6 in) in depth, and 43 cm (17 in) in width. My carry on was 1/2" to large and had to be checked. Personal Item was fine but barely matd the 6" thickness. The bonus of the trip was check bag limit was 23kg (50.7 #)
@@BrianEhrler There was some bad information going around that the EU had implemented a standardize carry on size of 20 cm for the thickness on 1 SEPT 2024. Fortunately, that apparently didn’t happen. I have not heard of a carry on sized bag that is that thin. If they ever adopt that it should really be 23 cm. Otherwise almost everyone’s carry on bag will be disallowed.
Video #6 for the backplate backpack for anyone interested! Such a great idea for traveling. Thanks for all your great content!
