I'm a little unclear about some of their policies on the website so I'm looking for a little clarification...
1. Can you still gate-check a stroller (specifically a Joovy Sit-and-Stand)? If so, is there a charge? If not, do you pay a charge to check it? And does that mean you are unable to use it IN the airport while waiting for the flight?
2. Can you carry-on razors (like, to shave your legs, not box cutters or something)? I see this chart but I'm obviously a moron because I still don't know the answer (permitted means carry-on?):
Item | Carry-on | Checked |
Box Cutters | No | Yes |
Ice Axes/Ice Picks | No | Yes |
Knives - except for plastic or round bladed butter knives | No | Yes |
Meat Cleavers | No | Yes |
Razor-Type Blades - such as box cutters, utility knives, and safety razor blades (disposable razors and their cartridges are permitted) | No | Yes |
Re: If you have flown US Air lately:
We just flew last week, not US Air, but the TSA security would be the same. I had a disposable razor in my carry-on and it was no problem.
We also used a car seat on the plane and gate checked the stroller. There was no charge and they tagged it as we boarded the plane and we left it in the corridor right before stepping foot on the plane.
