Carry-on question

[Gina]

I have a question for any of you old MKC members. The new carry-on rules state that each person can bring one carry-on, plus a "special" piece, such as a briefcase, purse, or diaper bag. This trip, my little boy and I will both have rolling pilot cases for our carry-ons, and I'm wondering if my black MKC attache can be considered a briefcase or a purse?? It's easier to keep all my important documents and such in than my purse. I would just call Northwest Airlines and ask them, but I'm not sure how to describe the MKC bag and I figured y'all would know exactly what I'm talking about.

Any thoughts? Do I need to paste baby stickers all over it and tell them it's a diaper bag for my 5 year old?

Gina, you should be fine as long as you don't try to carry a PURSE as well. If your attache functions as your purse and you have the rolling carry-on then that is within the guidelines.

Enjoy!

Thanks, Michelle! No, I'm not bringing a purse -- just the MKC attache with my pilot case. I have really used the heck out of that bag!! Too bad the new Disney Club doesn't give out stuff like that. Oh well, glad I have mine!

Thanks for the reassurance!
