I'd say: it all depends.....I have a tri-fold which is nice for carry on as it is easily "legal"....But not sure how careful the airlines are being with the duo-fold, at least those that can hold 30 days worth of suits/shirts!!

I must admit that I gave a rude look to a passenger the other day who brought a 2-fold garment bag on-board. The thing was huge, and the FA asked him to check it. I just get tired of people that have no clue.
That's not to say that you are one of these people
but if the size of the bag doesn't look ridiculously big, I would just go for it.
