What types of swiss army cards can you take onboard a plane for international travel?

Checked: any one that you like.

Carry-on: nothing with a knife/knife-like/blade for Australia. In the US, you can generally get away with something that has a blade less than 4″.

Practical: I commuted between Sydney and USA (Texas) every 6 – 8 weeks for three years, making dozens of trips. I had a Swiss Army Card with the file attachment removed. About 18 months into traveling, Australian airport security confiscated it, on the basis that the (very, very small) scissors blade represented a weapon.

All of the Swiss Cards have a blade, scissor, or blade-like implement. Your only option would be to check it or selectively remove items prior to traveling with it as your carry-on. Otherwise you risk having it confiscated. However, there’s at least a decent chance you’ll get away with it.
