Hello, fellow travelers! I’m Thomas, the creator of “Can I Bring”, and your personal guide in the puzzling world of what makes the cut (and what doesn’t) in your luggage when flying.
My journey into the world of travel regulations began with a mix of passion for exploring new places and a series of humorous yet slightly frustrating experiences at various airports. Picture this: standing at security, excited about your trip, only to find out that your favorite Swiss Army knife, a souvenir from your first solo trip to Switzerland, is a no-go. Or that time when I tried to bring back a bottle of traditional Greek ouzo for a friend, only to learn at the airport that it was a bit too much liquid for carry-on.
These experiences, while they make for great dinner party stories, sparked in me a realization. I wasn’t alone in this. Many of us, as travelers, have faced the uncertainty of what we can or cannot pack. And let’s be honest, trying to decipher airline policies can often feel like reading an ancient scroll.
That’s why I started “Can I Bring”. After spending countless hours researching for my own trips and helping out friends stuck in similar situations, I decided it was time to share this knowledge with a wider audience. This site isn’t just a compilation of rules and regulations; it’s a collection of insights, tips, and sometimes amusing anecdotes from my own travel experiences and those of fellow travelers.
I want “Can I Bring” to be your go-to resource for all those “Can I pack this?” moments. Whether it’s understanding the perplexities of carrying electronic devices or figuring out if that exotic food item can come home with you, I’ve got you covered.
Traveling is about joy and discovery, and I believe it should start hassle-free right from the moment you pack your bags. So, let’s get packing, and more importantly, let’s ensure everything you pack gets to fly with you!
Safe travels and happy packing!
Thomas
