The tripod isn't a travel one but it's ever so slightly taller than the bag itself. Every time I ask them during baggage check in and every time they have said it's fine. 1 time they stuck a sticker on it like they do your bags which basically shows you got it okayed.They allow people to take prams, walking sticks, skis, and crouches on board, and if you stuck the tripod into your bag they wouldn't have an issue with you carrying it on, so the classification of it being a weapon appears to be null and void and it really makes little difference to them if it's strapped to the side.</blockquote>
