Can I pack shoes in my carry-on bag?
amin bram
Yes, shoes are allowed in carry-on luggage. They are not subject to any specific restrictions during security screening and can be carried without any particular limit, as long as the luggage complies with the dimensions imposed by the airline. The main point to watch is the bulk and organization of the luggage, to ensure it remains compliant and easy to stow in the cabin.
Shoes are considered standard personal effects and are accepted on both short-haul and long-haul flights, provided they do not contain any concealed prohibited items.
