Travelers taking a weekend getaway who use airplanes for transportation often prefer not to check luggage for various reasons: one is to avoid paying for checked bags, and two, to skip waiting for the luggage at the baggage claim and quickly exit the plane with everything needed to enjoy their destination. For those wanting to carry everything on board, here are 3 affordable and complete bags perfect for avoiding checked luggage on flights.

Each airline has its own size restrictions for carry-on luggage, but the reality is that these are typically quite uniform across most airlines. To avoid surprises, it's best to verify the size allowed before flying. In any case, these bags meet the size requirements of the major airlines operating in the U.S., so you won't have any issues. The only concern is if you overpack and exceed the weight limit, which could force you to check it.
