> 1. They tend to put their carry-on in the first bin they find in the front of the airplane. So people sitting in the front have to put theirs in the back. This is a disaster later in the boarding process because there isn't enough room for people to circulate back up to the front after they stow their carry-on.
What if every section had to put their bags in the compartments directly above them? Rows 50-60 get overhead section 50-60, rows 40-50 only put their stuff in overhead section 40-50 etc?
Or they could just start charging for carryons too. Then there'd probably be way less of it.
- kcb 3y agoThere's just not enough room for a dedicated carryon space per seat. And carryons i've seen lately are massive they don't even fit long wise into the compartment.
- c22 3y agoThis is the real problem. It used to be free to check bags, so not everyone needed a carry-on. Now it costs money to check a bag so everyone needs a carry-on plus a personal item (in practice, a giant backpack that they shove their whole purse, laptop, and jacket into before awkwardly stashing it protruding out from under your seat and into the back of your feet). There used to be extra room in all that overhead storage for a ton of blankets and pillows.
