🛼 Roller Skates / Inline Skates

It depends on the airline. The skates themselves are not prohibited by aviation security, but sharp toe stops or picks may be flagged. Packing them in checked luggage is simpler and safer.

Ice skates have blades which most airlines classify as sharp objects prohibited in carry-on baggage. Roller skates with smooth stops are more likely to be permitted. Always check your airline's specific policy.

Not a security requirement, but removing wheels can help fit skates within carry-on size limits and reduces the chance of wheels damaging other items.

Use a dedicated skate bag or wrap each skate in clothing to pad the boot and protect the wheels. For checked bags, a hard-shell skate case provides the best protection.
