I don't know. At least in my eyes, you'd be one of those horribly unpopular women who take half their house with them just to be all cozy and comfy and then block the overhead bins. If only your carry-on goes in the overhead bin and none of the blankets and pillows and purses, I wouldn't mind. Take all you can carry.

My GF will take a sawn in half contoured memory foam pillow in her CHECKED bag if she stays somewhere for more than two weeks. Otherwise her neck is killing her.

There is a funny story of a town in Germany in the middle-ages. The town was under siege for a long time. When it became clear that they would have to surrender, the attacker told the town's women that they could take away all they could carry. The women decided to carry their men out on their backs. ^
