If you're returning from a trip with a few more items than you left with, American Airlines has some good news for you.
The Fort Worth-based carrier will officially remove carry-on-bag sizers from the gate area, as first reported by View from the Wing and later confirmed by an American Airlines spokesperson.
Removing the bag sizers means that gate agents will no longer ask travelers to measure whether their bags will fit right before entering the jet bridge. Going forward, the airline's employees are being told to err on the side of the traveler if they're unsure if the bag will fit in the overhead bin.
