As my only bag it contains valuables such as laptop, keys, wallet, a battery charger pack, dress watch, and things I want in the flight such as cables and a book. So now my Club Europe experience involves carrying these items in a plastic bag

The 40 seat prop plane from Milos to Athens with tiny overhead space accepted 12kg bags in the cabin

What the hell is Finnair doing?
Recently had a similar experience with LH out of Budapest. The agent walked thru the gate area demanding that people fit their bag and weigh them. When we got on board the A320 to FRA, half the aircraft on the right hand side was empty of cabin baggage.
