Holy air-safety China Eastern: they let me put my bags on the seats on takeoff/landin
Traveling to HKG from China, taking China Eastern. I've paid the last minute upgrade to upgrade myself to "First Class" (which is really regional business), it is 737-700 plane. At "First Class" there are three of us each sitting in our own 2-seater. All of us have a laptop bag and another 20" luggage carried on. When I got on the flight attendant told me to "just put your bags at the empty seat next to you", and I thought wow, full service, they will put it on overhead bin for me. But after everyone is seated the stewardess put the 20" bag to the leg space in front of the empty seat, and then BUCKLE my laptop bag on the empty seat next to me!!! (She did the same to the other two passengers in "First Class") The plane took-off and landed like this!
Holy air-safety.
