DO you think this it allowed on airplanes even if on key chain?

Julian, I don't think it will be allowed. See this article on CNN: http://www.cnn.com/2013/06/05/travel/tsa-knives/

I have had a similar one for years, traveled extensively with it via airplane, and never had it given a second glance. I keep it in a computer bag. TSA is basically lame but it benefits me.

Really it depends on the TSA person and the airport your going on. If its a smaller airport probably if its one like LAX probably not. I would put it in my checked luggage just to be safe.

I know that the regulation change would allow for this knife to be carried, as it falls under the pen knife qualifications, but I'm not sure if the change has been out into effect.
637661
Definitely not, especially with how much airport security has beefed up. You could probably leave it in the checked luggage though.

TSA hasn't found a terrorist yet but they're great at finding knives etc... to sell later... on ebay. Not joking.. you can buy confiscated toenail clippers in lbs. :)

Sorry, I have no idea. Have heard they will allow small knives now. Give them a call

Julian, I don't think this would get a second look. I have carried a Swiss Tech Products ST66676 Utili-Key Multi-Tool, 6-In-1, Stainless Steel for several years, and have never been questioned. Check it out. I've given many as gifts, and no one has been stopped by TSA yet.

I've had mine for a decade, over dozens of flights and hundreds of trips through courthouse security, and I have never had it taken. I think the main distinction is that it can be identified by sight, but NOT by X-Ray in the middle of keyring full of keys. Don't put it in the tray with your wallet, coins, watch, etc. Take your entire keyring out and put it in your briefcase/laptop bag/carryon etc, and you'll be fine.

Possible. I don't know for sure but my key ring has a car key and few others and it was fine.

It is too small for my Kindle, so I use it for my wallet and stuff. I imagine you can use it while inside, but I don't know if it will effect key operation or if it effects readability.

Hello,I have heard on some rare occasions that an airline will allow this on the plane, but I would not count on that. They will be happy to gate check it for you though.Thanks!

Yes, especially if it has a "TSA approved" lock that will be broken and/or discarded, often irreparably damaging your suitcase in the process. Just like real life.

No it is not permitted for air travel. I keep mine in my check in case and use it at my destination.

I don't know for sure but I'll have to agree with the rest, NO. However if your purpose is for firearms on a flight,as long as you have the two keys on your person, the TSA agent has a master, that's why they're TSA approved.

There is a key hole on the back side. TSA can access it with a key then lock back up after. Airline employees shouldn't have a copy of this key.

Yes, you can. We recently had that issue. It comes with two keys. The plate on the front comes off to reveal a keyhole.

No. It is correct. Because the material is flexible, each key works independently. No worries.

I really don't think so. It's kind of like a typical suitcase. I put my keys on the top of all the other equipment.. The bottom is pretty solid...again, like a typical suitcases bottom/back side. It is a nice case...but I wouldn't trust any airline with it. (no offense baggage claim...but I've seen your work:)

I have not put it on a key chain. It's small enough to put in your pocket without feeling bulky. And I gotta say, I really like these earplugs.

Sorry, I have never used it on an airplane, therefore I can not answer the question.

No. It can't be used on the airplane bc you need shoulder belt or the ability to use a tether. ...from their website in the FAQ section: The current versions of the vests cannot be used on airplanes because we require a tether to be used with a lap-only seat belt.

I bet this will be confiscated by TSA agents. So, if you really need it, pack it in your checked baggage. If you are traveling without checked baggage...leave this at home. I had a great multi-tool that was shaped like a key confiscated and no matter how long I tried to argue, TSA would not budge. The dull blade on that key was probably no longer than 1 inch.

Hi Shannon,I use it conected to my computer, and I transport it in a suitcase. The ear to secure the key is rather narrow, so I think a small ring to secure it to the keychain is needed. In fact this is one of the better cases for a stick I have owned. I recommend this 100%. It is FAST, looks nice. I could be a little thinner, but for 256GB of storage I cannot complain!
