Can I pack a small keurig machine in my carry on bag/suitcase?

I will not be checking a bag for our flight.

Why?

Are you staying in a hotel? Many hotels have keurigs or Nespresso machines. Same with AirBnB. Are you traveling somewhere like a city or town? Likely there is a local coffee house worth your patronage. That’s maybe a equivalent to adults you see flying with their pillow.

Get an aeropress. Will travel better and make superior coffee to the keurig.

Many do not. I’m staying at a very nice VRBO and they don’t.

There is one where I’m going and I will go there. But not at 530 in the morning in the dark and 15 degrees.
Your response is both condescending and daft.

Yes it is allowed. I wouldn't recommend it but it is allowed.

You are probably right. I’m just fascinated by the things people pack as necessities on any trip. And personally have never had a cup of coffee from a Keurig that was so delicious that I couldn’t live without it on a trip.

I apologize for my less than kind response.
I hear what you are saying.
In my experience, the coffee provided by hotels is much worse than anything in Keurig, so I bring my single serve one with me for car travel just in case.

I would buy a small cheap coffee maker at Walmart, or perhaps a Bialetti Mocha.

Carrying a coffee maker in a carry on seems like a giant PITA.

Perhaps you could negotiate a deal with the VRBO. Buy one and have it shipped there in turn for a reduced rate on your bill (cost of the Keurig).

Just as an aside, I always run a couple of cups of water through those things before I use them. No telling how many times I’ve opened them up to find mold in the water reservoir from not being cleaned properly.

I travel with a nanopresso quite a bit, and have never had trouble.

I bring this little baby with me when I travel on vacation. I fill it up with stuff from my doc bag to save space. Of course you need a stove, but all my Airbnb rentals have one. We will be in Hawaii in two weeks and cannot wait to sip some fresh Kona in the wee morning hours!
