Hi Carol, It would be extremely worthwhile for your son-in-law to check the baggage allowance with the domestic airline (and ticket type) they've booked with. Many Qantas and Virgin flights have 23kg limit for checked baggage, while carry-on luggage can vary from about 7-10kg with a size limit (needs to fit into the overhead locker or stowed under the seat in front). I've certainly taken a laptop computer, handbag and a small backpack (or small bag with novels and crochet) as carry-on :)
Some budget airlines may be different. Jen in Melbourne, Australia.
