The 2026 Reds bag policy is here, and it’s… well, it’s a thing. Let’s just say the days of bringing a duffel bag big enough for a weekend camping trip are long gone.
Listen closely: clear bags are still your best friend. Think of them as the VIP pass for your stuff. If it’s not clear, you’re playing on hard mode.
There’s a hard size limit, too. Your bag can’t be bigger than a 12” x 6” x 12”. That’s it. That’s the magic rectangle. Measure your bag against a loaf of bread. Is it bigger? Leave it in the car.
The Clear Bag Loophole (You’re Gonna Love This)
Here’s the fun part: you can bring a non-clear bag, but only if it’s tiny. I’m talking clutch territory. Think of a bag that holds your phone, a lip gloss, and a single, sad granola bar.
The rule says your non-clear bag must be 4.5” x 6.5”. That’s smaller than your average paperback. So if you’re carrying a purse that used to be “small,” it’s probably now “security’s problem.”
Pro tip: wear cargo shorts. Seriously. I’m not joking. You can stuff your whole life into those pockets and waltz right past the bag check. Cargo shorts are in now. Trust me.
