[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I like to stand for a while and allow the blood to circulate before boarding. I might as well stand in line. Honestly, I've never been in a boarding group or queue when I've had to worry about overhead bin space.

I'm also laughing at the posters who seem to think that they "own" the bin space above their assigned seat, or [b]think that small bags/coats have the same priority as carry-on luggage.[/b][/quote]

Again, tell me why I should give up my legroom to accommodate the cheapskate who won't check his own bag?  What is the rationale?  Why does your bag have priority over mine because it is "bigger"?[/quote]

Because there is X available overhead space on an airplane, and despite what Mr. Authoritarian claims, none of it is allocated to specific passengers (lets assume we're talking about all coach seats here).

Some bags, like your purse, will fit in overhead space and space under the seat (that *is* allocated only to you).  Other bags, like the wheelie, will only fit in overhead space.  So smaller bags will go where they can fir to make room for larger bags.

I would have thought this is obvious, but apparently some people need it spoon-fed for them.  [/quote]
