Not traveling with a rollaboard, just a backpack with clothes and photo equipment, and a laptop briefcase. I still don't want to have to argue over "can you assure me that the $7000 worth of camera equipment in this backpack will be there and working when I arrive? Worst case scenario the bag *should* fit under the seat infront of me, at least from what I remember doing in the past, and the laptop bag should be easy to stow, but I don't want to take any chances.
