Not trying to poke the bear, but question for the OP- How big was the carry-on bag? Could it have been determined by the original GA that it was oversized, and should've been checked to begin with? Would it have fit in the sizer?
Just your regular carry-on bag. I’ve been flying with it for years with no problem. They announced early on that we would need to check carry-ons, so not surprised or particularly annoyed at having to check it.
