Well AllanJ, I agree people should pay for overhead space, especially when 90% of travellers out there (AND I EXCLUDE MYSELF BECAUSE I NEVER TAKE BUT MY BRIEFCASE) take all their worldly possessions into the overhead bin of a Fokker 100.

The airline is paying a cost to handloe baggage and certainly charging us. Most out there who take their oversized pull-alongs into the cabins do so because they are too important to wait a little at baggage claim.

HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU BEEN CLOBBERED BY ROLLING LUGGAGE?

I do not enjoy it, especially from NEVER TRAVELLED FOLK sittingn in cattle class on international flights where they feel it is in theor best interest to jab you with an overfilled knapsack while minding your own affairs in Business Class.
