QUOTE(happyshirt @ Oct 10 2011, 09:36 PM) What do u guys think are my chances of using my 35+10L backpack as carry one luggage on Singapore Airlines? Their webside says 55cm x40cm x20cm trolley bag. Could i get pass with a backpack? Did you try measuring your backpack? If your backpack does not fit into that measurement, confirm need to check in.

Yes, that may be the case. Sometimes the person at the check-in counter would require you to check-in the backpack and not bring it on board. Like what you say, backpacks are always bulkier compared to trolley bags. It all comes back to the person at the check-in counter.

For AirAsia, if my bag dimension is bigger than the hand carry allowable size, but the bag is soft so I can still squeeze it into the airport 'size measurement jig', is it ok to bring it onboard?

Slightly bigger? Or way bigger? But then, my laptop bag sometimes also like that as I stuff my jackets and my DSLR bag into the laptop bag as well. I can get through normally so it might not be a problem. But just for a note, my bag even with the camera and laptop in it is still considered light. It just looks bulky.

It's about few inches bigger in each direction, so in total it's quite big. But as only have garments inside, it can be squeezed to fit into the 'tester'.

Is very much depending on the discretion of the AA staff manning the gate. Sometimes can get thru. Sometimes have to check in. To play safe, better comply the rules. Grey argument can't guarantee.

i got one question. can we reissue a part of ticket that we have not used 3 years ago. i know there is fee involved but just want to know whether is it possible or not.
e.g. Sydney-KL-Paris (to/fro), i'm not utilise the route of KL return to Sydney (consider no show as well because the date of flight already printed out in e-ticket)

Definatley cannot reissue. From what I know, usually you have got to get it reissued to another date prior to the actual travelling date that's stated on the ticket.

Not really. It all depends on the T&C of the fare category and for most more expensive Economy Class ticket, one can change the travelling date before or after the actual travel date. For the fully flexible Economy Class ticket (very expensive), there is no penalty for changing travel date as long as it's done before the actual travel date.

QUOTE(felicia666 @ Dec 21 2011, 05:59 PM) Will luggage cover protect the soft luggage or will the cover itself be torn off easily as it is slightly loose fitting? [attachmentid=2597878] Well,the safest bag I see to travel with is those hard type ie: samsonite,lojel etc... Why? Well..if u happen to see how the luggage handler move your bag around..u will be like...OMG..WTF ??? the luggage cover purpose is just for extra security reason if u ask me..if it happen tht your bag would e the target of theft..the cover simply make it more difficult,slow them down kind of stuff... Well...some pro thief can open your zip with just a ball pen...hope this help Cheers Nug

You need to check 1st whether you need to check-in again or not during transit. Also need to check the gate distance. 1 hour is barely enough for you to check-in and walk to new gate.
