With regard to my comment about the pax, you are correct, in hindsight it was an irrelevant comment on my part and had no bearing on the subject matter in the first place. Thanks for your thoughts.
One does not put the wheel bag in the overhead with the handle extended —. The maximum dimension is 22” and most of the metal frame 75l are at least 6” longer.

If I look at my roller bag and extend the handle for an equivalent that Is a large bag for carryone.

You may not be allowed to carry it on the plane for the return flight as the Europeans can be more strict.
