carry on luggage 1-Jun-2009 At 3:51:54 PM DSPIES

we had issues in thai land & Kuala Lumpur with this. flying air asia.
by memory our bag weighed in over, so we put our QDs and rope in carry on. they said no prob and weighed our bags again. they were still over so we paid a nominal amount.

then when we got to security they said 'no chance' to all our climbing gear that now made up our carry on, so we had to pay for a second bag to be checked in, and we had to pay for the additional weight. it actually worked out quite expensive, plus my rope was in a rope bag so when i checked it in, i wasn't able to lock it. As compared to when i had it stuffed in my back pack.

Moral of the story: if flying air asia, don't listen to the people at the counter, just check it in. and put your other heavy stuff in your carry on.
