Yes, umbrellas can fly in carry-on or checked bags; a folding one in your bag is easiest, while long umbrellas may be gate-checked. Rain can hit the minute you land.

No, most Leatherman multi-tools can’t go through the checkpoint in carry-on if they include any knife blade, even a small one. A Leatherman feels harmless when it lives in your pocket every day.
