No, my carry-on was not searched, but I was told by Aer Lingus in advance that the wine could not be in my carry-on; it had to be in my checked luggage.

Hi, Budman.

We're leaving on June 1 so we will miss you over there. I've seen many of your posts. Thanks for the info. Have a great time!

nj9000, Mary, you'll have a great time. I promise I won't drink all the Guinness before you get there. Wishing you a nice trip.

Budman, My sister (ali_oops) and I will be on the same flight as you and your wife from Boston to Shannon. We are still worried about making our connection in Boston. I'm going to try to go standby on an earlier flight from Denver. I'm pretty sure I will make it, but I'm worried about her.

I was also concerned about the carry-on weight and went from a rolling carry-on to a very thin duffel bag. Weighs next to nothing. Wish us luck, and I wish you luck with the "kitchen sink."
