A free tool that answers one question well: can I bring this on a plane?
Every traveler runs into the same anxiety the night before a flight — "wait, is this allowed in my carry-on?" — and the answer is scattered across a TSA list, an airline policy PDF, an EASA bulletin, and a half-dozen out-of-date forum threads.
This site collapses all of that into one search box. Type the item you're worried about, pick your region, and get a verdict — carry-on, checked, or both — plus the actual conditions (volume limits, battery watt-hour caps, airline approval requirements). For full trips, the planner generates a packing briefing tailored to your route, length, and airline.
Item and airline rules are compiled from the primary regulator and carrier sources, cited on every page:
Every item page shows the last review date and links back to the source it was based on. Rules do change, so we re-check the dataset on a regular cadence and refresh the timestamps.
For trip briefings, we use an AI assistant (Anthropic's Claude, served via Replicate) on top of the same human-curated rules. The model is given your route, length, and airline and asked to produce a packing checklist plus destination-specific notes (climate, visa caveats, regional bans).
Every AI response is gated by an invisible bot check and a short ad-watching timer to keep costs sustainable, and results are cached so the same trip plan doesn't get regenerated for every visitor. We never store personal information — trips are anonymous and shareable plans expire after 90 days.
Because gatekeeping airport rules behind a paywall would be obnoxious. The site is supported by display ads (Google AdSense) and affiliate links to travel products and services that we genuinely think are useful.

This site summarizes common guidance. It is not legal advice and not a replacement for checking with your specific airline before you fly — especially for unusual items, international transit, or anything battery-powered. Rules change frequently and enforcement varies by airport, agent, and day.
If you find a rule that looks wrong or out of date, the fastest way to help us fix it is to email the address below with a link to the source.
