Hi all,

I'm just about to shoot an email off to a couple of airlines to ask about bringing a monofin as carry-on luggage, and I can't remember how big the damn things are (i'm at work).

Does anyone know their monofin measurements off the top of their head? Doesn't have to be too specific, they're all roughly the same and for what i'm doing, the smaller the better.

Cheers,
Ben
 
76x76cm ...i dont think that you will be able to take it as carry on luggage at present. In the past i have had to put mine in the oversize luggage section / where they put the children’s push chairs on the plane.

Have never had a problem with this (touch wood) and will be doing this again tomorrow when i head off to Egypt!:inlove

Just make sure your mono is protected from being flung about and dropped etc!

I use a thin MDF sheet on both sides within the bag along with polystyrene to sandwich the mono and protect it.

I hope that helps.
