Check In vs Carry On....?

[ukran1ans]

I'm carryon all the way, especially since I use a backpack for my extras that I slide under the seat in from of me on the flight down. I brought my daughters in Dec and just the hair products alone guarantees that they have to use check-in (even though they were smart and only had one large check-in bag that they shared). The 'quart ziplock bag for liquids' is a killer for women, though, trying to do carryon for a week!
