This is close to but not under 62 in dimension for regular airline luggage. Anyone have problems or luck with checking on flights as regular luggage?

I have checked a 1650 on flights around the world. My case has been checked in Dayton, Chicago, los Angeles, San Francisco, Rome, Frankfort, Chennai, Singapore, Beijing, Shanghai, Tokyo, Heathrow, and more I don't remember. Never a problem.

I haven't tried but just by holding this thing I can tell you I wouldn't want to be the one to hold up the boarding by trying to get it in the overhead. It's sturdy enough to survive in the cargo. It might crush everything around it but it will be ok.

It's specs add up to 46 inches but because it is collapsible and looks smaller than it is, I cannot imagine it being denied as a carry on bag. Mine is not 46 inches as I rarely have it packed to the gills.

I have travelled with this case in the overhead compartments. Bear in mind that different airlines and indeed even different planes allow different size cabin luggage. I have had to put it in the hold on small planes (Dash 8) but they put that in individually, luggage was collected from me on the Tarmac and returned to me on the Tarmac, not actually checked luggage. On the larger planes it is no problem but you have to watch your weight limit!

I'm flying in a week and am wondering the same thing. Delta's limits are 62 in. (L + H + W). It seems that this would be bigger than that 62. in. restriction--I guess it's just a matter of whether the airline would really measure it or not.

Wow, great question.. It might be too wide but then again, I carry mine around like a briefcase. Maybe order it and try it at the airport in that size thingie. If it doesn't fit, send it back. I like mine... Very sturdy.

Hi. I travelled on several international airlines with this bag as a carryon and never had any problem with the size. However, I don't know about the US domestic airlines. Varies. Dont think it should be a problem. Still, I would double check on that. Hope that helps.

Its not oversized. Period. Ive traveled with it. As long as its weight is within limits, most airlines will take it.

No. It does meet most airline carry on size for 47"; keep in mind you could go all the way up to 51" overall size due to the fact the it is a soft sided garment bag. P.s. use maxpedition cubiods and/or tactical toiletry bag, makes life so much easier. In my experience no one ever check the size. Plus if it is a full flight like they are usually certain airlines will check your carry on luggage for free at the gate as a courtesy for allowing more space for other passengers. Don't sweat it. I last flow in June 2014.

Try measuring the folded transport chair. Then compare those dimensions with the NOVA Travel Bag dimensions. This idea worked well when determining if the bag would accommodate an oversized rollator. Here's hoping that the measuring idea works well for you also.

Why wouldn't it as it fits all of the airlines size restrictions. It's just another bag.

No problem. I haven't had any airline, including Delta, ever tell me this bag was too big to carry-on.

I am afraid it will not fit into a regular luggage, but perhaps you can put it into a special box and check in. It comes with a bag which you can use for travelling.

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.

This size is too thick for airline carry on regulations. I have flown locally and internationally and have not been refused. There have been times when I had to insist it was okay. BS. and got away with it. Lately, airlines have been stricter on carry on sizes so I've had to downsize to avoid hassles. Again. I haven't been refused, yet. But, it's a risk as technically the dimensions are too large.

This thing is probably 3-4 times larger than what is allowed for carry on luggage. The size given in the description is 30" X 50".....so check with your airline and see what the maximum allowed carry on size is. Most of them are around 45 linear inches. This thing is 160 linear inches.

This will not fit into a 29" suitcase. I suspect it is 50" or so when collapsed

Also, I work at AA HDQ and it fit into the luggage sizer we have at out ticket counter. As previously mentioned, however, all luggage is subject to be treated differently depending on aircraft size, weight restrictions, etc. My flights were S80, 767 & 737s.
