Steven Frischling, aka: Fish, is globe hopping professional photographer, airline emerging media consultant working with large global airlines and founder of The Travel Strategist. Fish has racked up more than 1,000,000 miles since he started to track his mileage in 2005.

Fish's travel tends to be less than leisurely, including flying from New York to Basrah, Iraq, for six hours; Hong Kong for eight hours, Kuwait City for two hours and traveling around the world in 3.5 days to shoot a series of photo assignments in 4 cities and 4 countries on 3 separate continents.

Fish grew up at the end of New York's JFK International Airport's Runway 4R/22L, which probably explains his enjoyment of watching planes, fly overhead. When not shooting photos or traveling Fish designs camera bags, hones is expertise on airline security and spends his time at home cheering for the Red Sox with his 3 kids 102 yards from the ocean.

21-December-2006 : United States Transportation Safety Administration – Know The Rules!

How many times have you packed and wished you could bring your roll-aboard carry-on, your brief case and a bag (that meets the legal carry on size) full of camera on board? Admit it, you’ve wished this quite a few times if you have flown more than twice in the past few years. Well, there is a little know rule the TSA has and almost no airlines argue with…..it turns out YOU CAN BRING ALL THIS!

Yep, that’s right, the TSA Guideline allow for one carry on, one personal item (brief case, book bag, laptop bag, etc) and one full size carry on with photographic equipment. While the TSA guidelines do offer an out by saying check with your airlines first, when presented with a print out of the TSA carry on allowance, and exemption for photographic equipment, I have never had a gate agent go against the printed rules. Below is a link to the TSA guidelines PRINT IT OUT AND CARRY IT WITH YOU AT ALL TIMES

    Hi Fish,

    I searched and searched for this form on your site and found it!
    Is it still valid? I see it is 3 years old and I haven’t seen mention of it lately.
