Hat box- carry on?
« on: September 29, 2021, 09:44:27 PM »
Haven’t flown to Israel in a while. Family member flying United this week. Do airlines accommodate hat boxes these days or are they counted in place of a carry on? Thanks

I generally see them being taken as a personal bag.

You can always wear the hatbox on top of your head... (turn it upside down open it and put on your hat like regular while its in the box with the lid hanging behind you)

I've seen it done.
