How seriously should I take size and weight limits of hand luggage?
I'm interested in hearing anecdotal evidence from a specific airline and airport.
Flying KLM
AMS Schiphol ---> JFK NYC
Is there any precedenceprecedent of KLM weighing carry-on bags at Schiphol? I am planning to put my textbooks in my backpack to decrease the weight of my checked luggage to its acceptedacceptable limit.
