Hi Photographer Friends,

My husband and I have not flown for a vacation since 9/11 as our trips had to be short driving trips. No we are not afraid to fly, but real life e.g. taking care of my Dad after my Mom passed away; taking care of my husband's mother after she was diagnosed with colon cancer; planning wakes and funerals all fell upon us. We survived and are happy we did the best we could for our parents.

Anyway, it is now time for us so we are going to take a flying vacation this summer.

Any suggestions on carrying my EOS with four lenses? I have a Lowepro camera case. I need to know some things about flying with the camera and equipment. What happends through check in, etc. Special bag I should purchase? Thanks for any help or tips.

Nothing to worry about. Don't check your gear, carry it on. If you bring a laptop, just make sure you put it in a separate bin at the security check. Smooth sailing.
