Commuters: beware UA/CO carry on policy
Carry-on policy ensures speedier boarding during busy travel weekend Posted February 17, 2012
It's President's Day weekend, and that means we'll be seeing increased travel around our U.S. operations. This weekend and every day, enforcing our carry-on bag policy can speed the boarding process and increase space for customers' items. Our current policy allows each passenger one carry-on bag not to exceed 45 linear inches and one personal item (1 1). There are two exceptions, however. First, in-cabin pets no longer count against the 1 1 limit. Second, only working or deadheading Inflight Services or Flight Operations co-workers are exempt from the 1 1 limit. Non-working Inflight Services or Flight Operations co-workers, including commuters, are no longer exempt from the 1 1 limit except for their flight bags. This flight bag exception applies only to mainline co-workers. The FAA and United Quality Assurance auditors are monitoring enforcement of this policy, and non-compliance could result in fines. You may read details of the combined program at continental.com or united.com. |

Guess it's going to be time to start getting flights out late because you had to go to baggage claim to get your friggin' flight kit.

Yet another reason to commute in uniform.
