Compression or space bags
Hi, I plan on only taking one carry on bag but will be in countries with summer climates, then very cold climates later.
So I put my floor length, fur hooded down coat in one of those compression bags with the vacuum valve, where you use a vacuum hose to take the air out. Are there any restrictions with TSA screening or with having these bags in the cabin? I did try an internet search first and the information seemed vague to me. I will be flying Delta internationally. I can visualize a disaster if for some reason this bag lets loose in the cabin mid-flight! Thank you in advance for any information that you can share. |

I've also used them in checked and carry-on bags - won't be any problem at all. Second the above, get good quality bags - they'll hold up better and last longer.

Thank you everyone for answering, very much appreciated.

The Travel Products forum here has several threads about compression bags/cubes. Here's a typical one:
