[quote=Anonymous]Not at all.  Air travel has become such a miserable experience in recent years that no one should expect any special consideration from other passengers.  We are pushed, poked, prodded, and jammed into seats that would make a large child uncomfortable. If it's important to people that they sit together they need to have the foresight to plan accordingly.

Recently when I was flying American Airlines the flight attendant asked over the loudspeaker that anyone who may have had a computer bag in an overhead bin to please take it out and to place it under their seat.  Well it seems that no one responded to that request so a few moments later he asked that we all be good citizens and that we should think about our fellow passengers needs and that we should make room for other people's belongs in the overhead bins.

I couldn't  believe the nerve of this guy who was asking me to be a good and responsible citizen.  Why was he not asking American Airlines why they charge $25 to check your suitcases and why was he not asking the people who were carrying-on luggage the size of small steamer trunks to be good citizens and to stop taking up so much space.

I followed the rules, I checked my bags, I paid my duty, I was seated with my seatbelt buckled, and I didn't budge. [/quote]
