carry-on bag

Those in “basic” will still have to pay extra for things like bringing a carry-on bag, selecting a particular seat and changing or canceling a reservation.

But change fees will be eliminated for passengers in the other three groups, who will also be able to buy extras such as seat selection and bringing a carry-on bag in bundles instead of singly.

A carry-on bag caused a security breach, long lines and delays to get to the gate at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport on Sunday night.

Sunday, an equipment malfunction at a security checkpoint prevented a passenger’s carry-on bag from being properly searched, Transportation Security Administration spokesperson Lorie Dankers said.

Recently, American Airlines relaxed its pet policy to allow passengers to bring a carry-on bag in addition to a pet in a carrier, and more private flight options have been emerging in recent years for pet owners who can afford them.
