[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I flew Lufthansa last month. The bag I carry on for all US carriers was not allowed. I had to check it at the gate, as did many other passengers.
On another note, my flight back to the US was almost completely empty, at least in my section of the plane. I guess Europeans aren't coming here.[/quote]

+1 This has been my experience with European carriers - even if it fits the US carry-on standards. On a recent flight, I did what I thought was carry-on only - I was asked to gate check my bag when they saw me getting on the airplane. It was within the specs weight and size but I got the sense the minute they see a roller bag they just make you check it. [/quote]

Hmm ok. Well guess I will see! I have flown international airlines before with the bag and it does meet the specs (smaller than the specs!), but I guess you never know.

And yes this is for carry on! I heard that they do weigh at the gate but maybe only out of Europe! We managed to pare down to 17lbs by moving some clothes to our personal items. [/quote]
