So much easier to put your luggage in the part of the plane designed for luggage
Love it! ^
If only everyone had the same idea rather than trying to fit everything including the kitchen sink in a wheelie case that takes up more than their fair share of the overhead locker space!
I have to say easyJet are spot on with their new hand luggage policy!
Oh and edited to add that as flight crew I've mainly been using the free bags from AMS zipped inside a clear United wash bag I got from the arrivals lounge in LHR after an F trip 6 years ago. Based in manch and have had no issues to date (well apart from LPL but then they also make you put the iPad in a separate drawer...)
