SeatGuru says 6AB have limited overhead space due to emergency equipment, is that a concern? I suppose 6AB passengers just put their stuff over someone else's head.

on my most recent '57 flight last w/e, i was in 6b and there was a smaller o/h bin immediately above 6a/b but it appears that it was added to keep the uniform shape and not have any dead space. this mini-bin was empty and use of the full bin (1/2 over 6a/b) could be used as well. for me it was easy as all i had was my briefcase so up it went into the mini-bin. also, iirc, their is crew use storage above 6 c/d (first aid kit, etc.) so perhaps that's where the "limitted space" comes from
