I did 26 flights around SE asia. Mostly Air Asia. Never had them weigh my carry on. Take a Osprey Porter 46 bag and a small backpack with my netbook and crap. Never any problems. This year I am taking my gear here is what i got:
force fins w/inserts (no need for booties!) i stuff my dive computer in one and mask in the other
put them on the bottom on the top of the fins:
Zeagle express tech - pack with the body side of the plate face down and cam bands face up, pull all the straps over the top and wing around tight.
Inside the cam bands area I put in my reg setup (apex flight all miflex hoses and naked 1.5" spg)
I have room to spare and fit my camera and housing and a .5mm wetsuit.
I dont think you can get lighter than this.
