New Delta Amex Commercial
I've have lost it I think.....

Did anyone else see the new commercial that seems to push the free checked bag quite a bit. Then the lady walks onto the plane and put her bag in the overhead WHEELS IN!!!!

What a bad example!

WHEELS OUT!!!!

I tried to find a copy of the video, but no luck!

BUT I DID FIND THIS GEM!!!

Your complaint is wheels in vs wheels out? As long as the door latches, who cares? I'd far prefer people do wheels in than sideways.

Not a complaint, I just thought it was funny.

They could have shown a pax stashing a large roller sideways, backpack and a shopping bag over an F bin then walking on back.

And even more amusing is the fact that every announcement I have ever heard boarding an aircraft is to place the bag in wheels first..........and if it doesn't fit to try wheels out.

Because of the curvature of the inside of the bins my bag fits better in most bins wheels out. As long as it closes and isn't sideways who cares?

My bag fits differently depending on carrier and aircraft type. And it seems that many people don't know that there's two different sized bins on the MD-88/90, I always get odd stares when I have to find a side-with-3-seats bin to put my bag in when it appears there's plenty of room in a 2 seat side bin

That would be more honest. What ever happened to Airline, the southwest reality show.
