I'm trying to figure out how to bring my camera bag, my laptop, and an overnight bag without having to check anything.

overnight bag large enough to hold the camera bag going through security (if a bit squished), laptop in slim cushion sleeve that ideally would also fit in overnight bag. and laptop can just be slid out right at security and back in when recovering bags.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

if I am checking luggage with my toiletries in it, do those need to be in a quart bag or no?if I am checking luggage with my toiletries in it, do those need to be in a quart bag or no?

No, you can check as much as you like.

Check the TSA web site for details. Expect to pay extra to check your bag, though. Tossers.

I got a three- or four-inch syringe needle onto a plane a few months after 9/11.

mac and I fly in Feb for a week's vacation and the airline charges for all checked luggage, so we are both carrying backpacks only. I am already dreading the minimalistic packing.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

In re those clueless about security - every time I have jury duty there seems to be someone (usually a lawyer) who hits the metal detector and has to empty his pockets of change, multiple sets of keys, and other assorted metal items.

sigh

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

the airline charges for all checked luggage

Another reason I put up with the cattle call boarding on Southwest. They don't charge for the first 2 bags.

I felt like someone out of George Carlin's skit. We packed suitcases (which we checked) of our stuff to take to SF. Then we packed carry ons of our stuff to fly to LA. Then we packed a backpack of the stuff we wanted with is in Disneyland.

I flew last year. They made me pass my netbook seperately through the scanner, but did not require me to power it on.
