This page explains how Travel Gear Advisor researches, writes and updates its articles.

Our sources

We use manufacturer specifications, airline baggage pages, FAA and TSA rules for batteries and security, and published standards. When a claim comes from a manufacturer, we say so.

What we do not do

  • We do not claim to have tested products unless that is true, and we never invent test results, ratings, awards or quotes.
  • We do not publish Amazon prices, star ratings or customer reviews.
  • We do not accept payment to include or rank a product.

Use of AI tools

AI tools help draft some articles. A person checks every article before publication; facts, numbers and rules are verified against sources, and anything we cannot verify is removed.

Corrections and updates

We review articles regularly. If you find an error, please contact us.
