    TSA will probably assume you just checked your luggage at the ticket counter. But they won’t care either way.

    Is it fishy to travel without luggage? I’ve done it tons of times, who knew?

    I did an air commute with, weekends at home and weekdays on-site at an apartment. I flew with my phone, headphones and wallet only as my key got hidden in my beater car-bumper. Never had a second glance at TSA.

    Is this domestic travel or are you going through customs?

    Domestic - nope. It’s possible they can look it up - but for all they know - you just checked your bags.

    International/customs - don’t say you have a large amount of money on you or any meat/fruit in your socks and you’ll probably be fine.

        You joke, but Trevor Noah ate a whole bag of biltong (South African jerky) in front of customs because customs would not let him into the country with it.

    No, shouldn’t really be an issue. People fly without luggage regularly, for many reasons. If they decide to flag and check you, just explain your situation

    No. I’ve done many short haul flights like that without problems, including in the US.

    Sometimes the duration of your stay is a short one, and your baggage (or lack thereof) will reflect that.

    I’ve done a lot of hops between Houston and Mobile like that.

    We rarely check bags.
