But human behaviour is ingrained and we'll never change it. As soon as that seatbelt chime goes off at the gate, most people will stand and/or move ahead of their assigned rows in salivatory preparation for deplaning. Frequent travelers are as guilty as the rest. It's not as if we don't know the door won't open for at least a couple minutes after the brakes are applied...
It wouldn't be the first time I've taken a bag out of a forward bin that a pax deposited there on route to row 80. Gawd that bothers me
