Are there any other concerns I should think of? Thanks in advance for any thoughts.
You should be OK. These days there's a crew shortage. Your crew might not stay with the plane, so you could be left without a crew for a while.. But the bag will stay on. If it's the first flight of the day the crew is more likely to remain on board for all 3 legs.
