Passengers Travelling to the USA

One Carry-On Bag Allowed for Passengers Travelling to the United States

http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/mediaroom/infosheets-menu-5811.htm
Transport Canada now permits one small carry-on bag for airline passengers who are travelling to the United States. This carry-on bag must not exceed a size of 23 cm x 40 cm x 55 cm (9 in x 16 in x 22 in), which is equivalent to the size of a small gym bag. The carry-on bag must fit into an airport’s carry-on baggage sizer.

Items such as reading material, personal electronics, and medications must be stored in the passenger’s carry-on bag, and packed prior to the security check.

Exceptions

As always, the Government of Canada is ensuring that exceptions are made to accommodate travellers with medical conditions or travelling with small children.

In addition to the carry-on bag, the following will be permitted:

  • A cane, walker, crutches or other life-sustaining items.
  • Medical equipment (oxygen tank, doctor’s bag).
  • Diaper bags and other essential items for those carrying infants.

Travellers may also bring:

  • A musical instrument.
  • Pets.
  • All duty free items purchased after the security check.

One of the following will be permitted in addition to the carry-on bag: a small purse or laptop or camera bag. Laptop bag should only contain laptop and related accessories. Otherwise, it will be counted as your carry-on item.
