US based flights bicycle question
Are rechargeable USB bicycle lights allowed on a flight within the United States? Also is a small round helmet mirror allowed on a flight? I will be flying American Airlines and want to know.
Best Answer
There are no restrictions on those items in either checked or carry on baggage. The only exception I can think of would be if your bike light has one of those older waterbottle sized rechargeable batteries (which aren't very common anymore).
