Carry-on luggage is necessary for airline passengers carrying anything of value due to long-standing and rampant theft by baggage employees.

Once airlines take security seriously enough that a camera or laptop is safe in your checked luggage, then passengers will have less need for carry-ons.

Theft of valuable items from checked luggage has been a problem on US carriers for decades. This is not a problem in many other countries, such as Australia.

If the airlines can't or won't stop theft, why should you trust their aircraft maintenance or security against terrorists?
