Are laptops are allowed on an aircraft?
sugarBear asked:
I have 2 & need to carry both on board (don’t ask why). I have a medium sized luggage that I plan to put both laptops in there just so it looks like I only got 1 carry on. I was wondering if they will say anything about having 2 laptops?
I am not packing them into the checked in luggages to avoid damage (you know how they be throwing the luggages around). These 2 laptops are going into my hand carry bag which is a medium sized luggage. You are right about how it will take long at the security checks. I’d have to take both out & put it back in. If I have to do that to protect them both, then I will. It’s worth it. I don’t want them broken.

There is no regulation against having two laptops on an airplane – however, it many be harder to get through security for obvious reasons than just having one.
Good Luck!!!
I don’t need to ask why – checking a laptop is an invitation to damage or theft.
I travel, internationally and domestically with two laptops regularly, and I have no problem. Putting them in one carryon is the way to go (I use a backpack).
The only problem you will have is that it takes you longer to get through security, because you have to drag them both out, then stow them both. Note it is not a problem – just takes a little longer.
There wont be a problem with having 2 laptops. Just remember, most airlines only allow you 2 pieces of carry on luggage, so your laptop case will be 1 and a pocketbook, or backpack counts as 1.
