I've rarely seen families with young children with more than the
allowable amount of carry-ons. They usually only have one item per
child and only rarely two. FFM

Whereas I have seen it.





Are you sure you accounted for the carryons which go with the kids'

seats?

Yup.


Transcontinental tonight - two families. Mom - backpack plus diaper
bag. Dad, car seat plus baby.

Dad - briefcase and kid in tow. Mom, bag and kid number two.

FC full - most with the two bag maximum - one women with the
rollaboard, computer bag, Macy;s shopping bag and purse.

You do the math, Paul


As I said, my experience differs from yours.

Default Carry-ons (Opinions?)

it's worse when travelling with "she who expects me to act as pack mule" and
I have to take everything - my rollerbag, her rollerbag, coat, umbrella, etc
etc (and of course, it's a bit diffcult to stop from dropping those loose
items that fall out of coat pockets, etc) The backpack might be preferable
(but I wouldn't go sideways with it)

Before you learned were you the guy/gal with the backpack that goes
down the aisle semi-sideways and whacks my chest as he or she goes by?
How did you get on every flight I took?
