It does seem all about safety issues
It needs to be about education as well. If a cabin crew member was injured by a falling bag - which is not an easy feat to achieve in itself - please get rid of all the rubbish such as 'speed of boarding'.
And please bring on consistency. If it is about safety, how is it that other airlines can have unlimited cabin baggage but Aussies can only manage 7kg. Or is that 10kg (on Jetstar), or is that 14kg (over two bags).
And fix the problem with your overhead lockers!
