The short version: Check a Carry-On is a free informational tool. Airline rules and luggage dimensions change and may contain errors, so always confirm with your airline — we can't guarantee your bag will be accepted at the gate. We use Amazon affiliate links and display ads.
1. Acceptance of these terms
By accessing or using checkacarryon.com (the "Site"), you agree to these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.
2. The service & accuracy disclaimer
Check a Carry-On provides general information comparing luggage dimensions to published airline carry-on and personal-item allowances. This information is provided for convenience only and may be incomplete, out of date, or inaccurate. Airlines change their policies, enforce them differently per route, fare and aircraft, and measure bags at the widest external point including wheels and handles.
A "fit" result on the Site is an estimate, not a guarantee. You are solely responsible for verifying current requirements directly with your airline before you travel. We are not liable for any fees, denied boarding, gate-checking, or other costs arising from reliance on the Site.
3. Affiliate links
Check a Carry-On participates in the Amazon Associates Program. Some links on the Site are affiliate links, and as an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases made through them, at no additional cost to you. Prices, availability and product details are set by Amazon and may change. We are not the seller and are not responsible for products purchased from third parties.
4. Advertising
The Site displays third-party advertising, including through Google AdSense. Advertisements and the use of cookies for advertising are described in our Privacy Policy. We are not responsible for the content of ads or the websites they link to.
5. Intellectual property
The Site's design, text and original content are owned by Check a Carry-On and protected by applicable laws. Airline names, trademarks and logos belong to their respective owners and are used for identification and informational purposes only; we are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any airline or luggage manufacturer.
6. Acceptable use
You agree not to misuse the Site, including by attempting to disrupt it, scrape it at a scale that burdens our infrastructure, introduce malicious code, or use it for any unlawful purpose.
7. Disclaimer of warranties
The Site is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that information is accurate or current.
8. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Check a Carry-On and its operators will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, fees, or costs (including airline baggage fees) arising from your use of, or inability to use, the Site — even if advised of the possibility of such damages.
9. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Check a Carry-On from claims arising out of your misuse of the Site or violation of these Terms.
10. Third-party links
The Site links to third-party websites (such as Amazon and airlines). We do not control and are not responsible for their content, products, or policies.
11. Changes to these terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. Changes take effect when posted, and we will update the "Effective" date above. Continued use of the Site means you accept the revised Terms.
12. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws applicable at our place of operation, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Nothing here limits any mandatory consumer-protection rights you may have under your local law.
