[Leica] travel luggage question

[john at mcmaster.fr (John McMaster)]

Weight also comes into it.....  When we left NZ, with everything for a few 
months (my S kit and some others had been air freighted beforehand) we had 
2x suitcases within weight, my camera bag (+10kg), laptop bag with 2x 
laptops and an iPad, plus my partners handbag. It looked like they were 
weighing hand luggage so I distributed much of my M kit around my pockets to 
try and get within weight for the bag! When it came to it nothing was 
weighed, thankfully, but you do get variations with different airlines.... 
My partner flew Wellington > Auckland then Auckland - Shanghai with a Zippo, 
but from Shanghai to Charles de Gaulle she had to remove the flint!

Tara and I plan to travel to Europe soon and we have a few questions for all 
you frequent flyers. We each plan to take a suitcase which will be checked 
in. Our questions concern carry on bags, number and size permitted for men 
and women, for international travel. Can we each take two carry on bags, one 
for camera stuff and the other, in my case, a bag for computer , tickets, 
etc, in the case of Tara either that sort of bag, or a hand bag which will 
include iPad, meds, tickets, paperwork  etc?

we thank you,
