When we flew out of FLA airport (south Florida about 4-6 hours away from Orlando) we didnt have any problems. The 70 lb rule is true for all airlines, but some enforce it mroe then others I think. IF all else fails shift some stuff into other's bags. The main thing to remember is take off EVERYTHING that might set off the metal detector. The reason for this is if you walk through the detector first try security is not likely to bother you. I made it through with a laptop and laptop bag with tons of cables and stuff, my keys (force of habit), and my steel toed boots without gettting stopped or even looked at, cause I took it all off and sent it through the xray machine first try. Oh, and experience has tought us wallets (even completely cloth ones) will set off the metal detector, so stuff it in your carryon bag.
