Carry on. They will not separate you from your bag if issues occur mid route. They will not separate you from your bag, so if plane changes are necessary you lose all flexibility to adjust if you check your bag

Carry on. Absolutely. If it’s hard w tight connections, pack lighter and make sure your bag has four wheels, not two, roll it vs tug it.

Carry on. The negative for me is you have to board promptly to ensure that your bag is close to your seat. Nothing worse than sitting on row 10 with your bag on row 25 and then waiting 5 minutes to retrieve it after landing.

I check my bag for tight connections

Carry on. If running really late then you might consider gate checking your luggage. If risk of missing connection, ask gate to check the bag.

Carry on so u don’t have to arrive early to airport and when u land, u don’t have to wait

Just transferred from IT Audit to Strategy and Transactions. Been a goal of mine for a while so I’m happy to see it play out. Not posting just to say I did it, but because I’ve been following this bowl for a while and see people get negative about being pigeon holed. There were tons of transferable skills that I was able to highlight that got a role that’s completely different, so I just don’t want anyone feeling discouraged if they’re hitting walls.

Hey all, I work for a large National chain brand in organic and paid social. We do a lot with UGC so I’m fairly familiar in the brand side of things.
