“One of the more curious reports I’ve heard here in Dallas is that American Airlines (based here in Fort Worth) is seriously considering to ban *all* carryon articles, presumably including attache cases, camera bags, and notebook computers. (I know from personal experience that it is **not** safe to check notebook computers and video camcorders on airplanes, even with serious efforts to pack them well to protect them).”
