The 22 inches will never be a problem at the template, it doesn't measure that dimension, only the 14 x 9. A bag can be 100 inches long and technicailly still fit through the template.

Sorry, should have been clearer. I know the 22" dimension is okay under the United regs. So that dimension is okay even if it weren't for the fact that the template would allow the proverbial 10 foot pole through.
My concern was with one of the other dimensions being 10" rather than the 9" permitted under United regs. However, I gather from the fact that people haven't had problems with the Tumi 22" model, that the 10" dimension also goes through the templates. But I'm guessing I might have problems using the expanded bag to its fullest, which is listed at 22" x 14" x 12" (versus 22" x 14" x 10" unexpanded).
Anyone know the exact dimensions of the template?
