I just got my boarding pass, and didnt check my 2nd bag. I wanted to save the $25 fee.

So how does this work, do I just carry the bag on the plane?

Hence the name ;)

Second bag, though? You are allowed something personal and a carryon. The personal item goes at your feet, the carryon goes overhead.

How big is it? If it's a backpack or similar size you can carry it on, otherwise you'll have to check it at the gate just before you board the plane.

If it's a pizza and there's more than 3 oz of grease on it, you have to check it.

I've been parodied! Am I e-famous now? Is this the equivalent of being on a talk show?

Does your bag contain pepperoni?

Can you eat the carry-on? I can easily wolf down a large carry-on in one sitting.
