While I don't know how much, in reality, it ultimately helped as I was up front, but on my last flight 2 weeks ago from LAX-BOS, the purser on the plane, once the coach cabin started boarding, very politely 'reminded' everyone w/a wheelaboard to stow it in the overhead bin 'wheels first' & to put their 2nd carryon under the seat in front-I lost count of how many times he said this, but I give him credit for at least trying. AND, amazingly enough, NO ONE got mad or huffy w/him!!
