To those terrible people who put their small laptop bag in the overhead bins. There's a special place in hell for you.

We have had this thread before. If my laptop bag is all I have with me then it's going in my overhead space and I will stretch my legs all flight long. If I have a roller bag too then laptop bag goes under seat.

Dude, I checked by bag today. So, definitely not deaing with my laptop bag under the seat. It will go into the overhead!

Guilty, but I have really long legs. Too uncomfortable under the seat in front of me

Did you copy your old post?

Or the people that put small bags in the long side of bins. I have no problems moving bags to the appropriate side to make room for a proper sized carry on

D2, EY1, and SA2 - you're part of the problem.

Why can't people with long legs put their laptop bag under the seat vertically? I have relatively short legs but often put both backpack/duffel and purse under the seat to save overheard

^Only in first class

A1 that grinds my gears even more. Nothing worse than boarding F altar after a tight connection and having to gate check my bag bc if people like you.

D1 As long as I'm using less than 1/3rd of an overhead compartment, I'm going to choose my own comfort over your convenience every time.

You can also put it behind your legs and then stretch out...9/10 flight attendants don't care. Even when they do, your bag only has to be under the seat in front of you for takeoff and landing.

Hi everyone - We are thinking of changing our wedding photographer after unsatisfactory engagement photos and unsatisfactory communication (unresponsive after multiple attempts).

Definitely not happy with her and would like to switch to another one but also want to make sure we make the right move. Thanks!
