[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a tall woman.  I've put up and taken down plenty of suitcases for other people, particularly the elderly.  I'm sympathetic as I have a 5'0" mom (tall Dad) and I've been getting stuff off shelves for her since I was 10.[/quote]

+1 as a tall man. I'm happy to help. It's also way more pleasant than going through life being angry at people about their luggage.[/quote]
Thank you.  Lots of really selfish people around here.  DH is very tall; I'm super short.  DH helps people he sees struggling, whether with their bags or in the grocery store trying to get stuff on the top  shelf.  He's a kind person.   My kids (17 and 20) are tall, and even they have helped people in the airplane with their bags.

If I saw a mom with a baby and toddler trying to deal with bags and such, I'd help her.    Aholes would just tell her that she shouldn't fly to go see her family.[/quote]

I would never help someone because frankly they should be able to help themselves. Just like in an emergency--you put your own oxygen mask on first.[/quote]

You put on your own oxygen mask FIRST not ONLY!  No one is saying that if you are tall and able bodied you should put up other people’s luggage instead of your own.  So this is nothing like the oxygen mask.[/quote]
