Try taking anything larger than a medium roller onto a Qantas or Virgin flight in coach here for the last 5 years, and it will NOT get on past the BP reader staff .. period.
7 kilos - 15 lbs is IT for weight as well.
Works fine here and in most of Europe and other civilised places. <snip>
Thank goodness I don't travel in the
real airline world all the time because the little micro-dot amount of carry-on permitted by some airlines, Quantas & ANZ among them, is pathetic. Hard to keep a laptop + valuables with you unless someone turns a blind eye. I'll travel airlines with a generous carryon allowance anyday over those who insist everything bigger than a bag lunch must get checked. To each his own....
