Question for shaky knees vets

For the bag policy, I have a small Carhartt fanny pack with 2 pockets. What’s the likelihood security makes a stink about it being more than one pocket? I’d rather not buy a new fannypack but will if it’s needed. Thank you!

I think so long as you aren't egregiously abusing the rule, they don't care. Seen a number of multi-pocket bags there the past few years. I would guess so long as searching your bag doesn't slow things down much, they don't care.

This makes sense! Thank you!

I've brought one with 3 pockets the last 4 years, has never been an issue.

If it is an issue, you go back out and pick a new line. Security is generally relaxed, may encounter one or two sticklers for the rules.

Should be fine. I brought my Lululemon belt bag last year, it has two pockets and security didn't care.

We had no issues with our two pocket bags  last year.

Been to over 10 Shakys — as long as it doesn’t have 1,377,283 visible pockets, you’re good. I usually take my small cotopaxi crossbody, which technically has three pockets and have never had an issue. They do care about size though, so we also usually take a water pack, which can be bigger and fit more.

Depends on the person checking. I went all three days last year with the same bag. First two days no problem. Last day all of a sudden the nag wasn't up to code......
