Product review - Tom Bihn Checkpoint Flyer TSA friendly laptop bag {Gadling}

Oct 9th 2008 10:33AM It's still going to depend on the whims of the TSA screener. I had one yell at me yesterday, claiming that a laptop and its bag must go in separate bins, and that by putting them in one I was breaking the law. (I have a mini ~7"x10" laptop, it and its bag fit flat in the bottom of a single tray without touching each other.)

One reason that the public can't follow the rules is because the rules vary from checkpoint to checkpoint. Since screenees can't question the screener's judgement without causing a ruckus, there doesn't seem to be any mechanism by which screeners get informed that their interpretation of the rules is different than others.
