About the Skagit Valley
The Skagit Valley is a beautiful corner of Northwest Washington, stretching from the farmland and tulip fields of the valley floor to the shores of Fidalgo Island and the San Juan Islands beyond. Historic La Conner sits on the Swinomish Channel, and Anacortes is the gateway to the islands.
There is no shortage of ways to stay active here. Hike or run the trails of Washington Park and Mount Erie in Anacortes, walk or bike the Tommy Thompson Trail, or explore the beaches and bluffs of Deception Pass State Park. Paddlers and boaters can enjoy Padilla Bay, the Swinomish Channel and the waters of the San Juans. Every spring, the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival brings miles of color to the valley's farm roads, perfect for walking and cycling.
La Conner and Anacortes also offer a rich arts and cultural scene, including the Museum of Northwest Art, local galleries, waterfront shops and restaurants, and a calendar full of community events.

The carry-on size limits didn't change in 2026, but enforcement did.

The standard across American, Delta, United, Alaska, and JetBlue is 22 x 14 x 9 inches; Southwest and Frontier allow a roomier 24 x 16 x 10; budget carriers restrict free items to a personal-item size around 18 x 14 x 8; and international carriers like Lufthansa and Emirates enforce strict weight limits U.S. airlines ignore.
