Re: Fish in carry-on

Carry-on is the only way to go and I don't even mention it.  

Be prepared to show the fish at the security gate (only if necessary), 
and once you have
cleared that gate the airline will not care.   If they would ask me I
would simply say they are 
a present for my grandaughter.  In all reality why would they care about
carry-on fish???
