Overhead bin space on E90
I was supposed to fly AA HEL-ORD, but have been rerouted because AA postponed the start of the flights to mid-June. Now I'm flying HEL-MAN on AY and MAN-ORD on AA.
HEL-MAN is operated with an E90 and I will have an exit row seat (in Y) so no floor storage. Since I want to travel with only a carry-on, I am now worried about whether the overhead bins are large enough to accommodate my bag. The measurements are 55 x 40 x 26 cm.
Does anyone here have experience or information about the size of the E90 bins? Last time I had to fly an Embraer I actually thought about bringing a tape measure on board, but forgot. The bin looked rather small, but the FA said most bags fit in there.
I'd be grateful for any insights.
