What are the odds I could get away with a roller carry-on, laptop bag, and a garment bag? Aircraft will be a 747 then a 321.
Pretty easy I'd think, so long as the bags don't look overly large. I've regularly on my Middle East trips taken, roller case, small rucksack with laptop & kindle inside and a suit in a suit carrier. Suit goes in the wardrobe, Roller case in the overhead and small rucksack beside me or on the floor in front, that way I feel I'm not taking up other peoples space.
