Canadians flying to the United States are allowed to bring one bag with them into the cabin of the plane. After the foiled attempt to bring down a plane en route to Detroit last Christmas Day, CATSA, the Canadian Air Transport Security Authority, restricted carry-on luggage on flights into the US.

The carry-on restrictions are limited to 23 cm x 40 cm x 55 cm (9 in x 16 in x 22 in). In addition to the carry-on, passengers can bring a pet, coat, purse, musical instruments, laptop or camera bag with them into the cabin. Electronics, books, and medicine must be kept in the carry-on luggage.

Visit the CATSA web site for further information pertaining to carry-on luggage.
