If you're traveling the 4th of July weekend and thinking about cramming all your stuff into a carry-on to avoid luggage fees, you might want to think again.

Some airlines plan to have extra "Carry-on Cops" to make sure travelers aren't violating on-board luggage rules.

People caught with busting bags that break the restrictions will have to check, and pay, for the oversized luggage.

Carry-on size rules vary from airline to airline.

Some say 45 linear inches is the limit, others say 51.
