If they would just enforce the size limit then it wouldn't be an issue. Plenty of room for everyone to put a properly sized item in the overhead. When they let people on with a carry on that's too big, a big arse backpack, and purse as big as a backpack then the whole boarding system is held up.

Make it zero tolerance at the gate and it won't be a problem on the plane. No body wants to go pick up luggage anymore. Their time is too important and they have to have all of their shite with them on the plane.

Just because you didn’t know what USAID was until a few weeks ago doesn’t mean the rest of us have always been so ignorant.

Do you understand how travel costs impact the rest of the economy?

I have to wait with colleagues who check bags and I can assure you, I’d be on the way or close to my destination before their bags come out.

I also cab it from the airport and Uber to. Can drivers are plentiful and know where they’re going.

Start checking your bags, you’ll regret it really quick.

You would save even more time due to the reduced time for boarding and deplaning

It takes longer to wait for luggage at the carousel than waiting to put my carry-on on the plane.


From my experience this is always true. For the few times that I don’t check a bag, this is the main reason

It doesn’t take more than 30-45 minutes to get checked in at even the busiest airports in the country. And that’s the absolute maximum.


From my experience, the bigger airports are faster because they actually have adequate staffing compared to smaller regional airports . Same applies for picking up bags

You sound like a Row 30 guy who tries to exit first.

Those are the worst hurry up down the isle to get three rows ahead and inconvenience everyone else on the plane as they crowd the isle preventing us from getting our overhead bags in an efficient manner!

Well when you can book a round trip ticket to Vegas for under 150 dollars without bags, it is a no brainer. Southwest is a little more just for a one way ticket.

Are you under the impression that the obese only fly spirit or only spirit jams as many hogs in the pen as possible?
