To clear things up.
1. I mention my status and segments to point out the ridiculousness of the GA.
2. I have not had a problem fitting my bag on any non-RJ aircraft.
3. To all the rule “obeyers” all I can say is wow.
1. irrelevant
2. completely irrelevant. the sizer rules.
3. It is not about being a rule obeyer. It is about knowing what to expect and then take decisions accordingly.
It does not matter that you or I think the rule is ridiculous (Which it very well may be). The rule is there, the way it is enforced is what it is. Nothing you can do about it. I'd rather make sure I have a carry-on that complies (fits in the sizer) than risking it being taken away and then rant on FT about it.
