Never understood why people do that. I mean, you have a ticket which means you have a ****ing seat on the plane.
Sure, but there are size limits for carry-on so it really shouldn't matter either way?pretty much what Herbstreit said, people are crazy for overhead bin space now that most airlines charge you to check a bag. my last few flights have been on Southwest and overhead bin space has been plentiful. I'd say the other airlines need to wise up and at least give passengers ONE checked bag for free but let's face it, they're not giving up the BILLIONS they're raking in with these fees.
.. but if anything is underrated and reachable please let me know!
Phuket is tremendous.
Enjoyed Kuala Lumpur for the short time I was there.
Really, really love the Philippines.

A few weeks ago i flew to Sweden and avoided the rush to board so I was one of the last to board. All I had was my carry on back pack. When I got to my seat the over head luggage rack was full. Stewedes told me I would need to check my bag. When I asked the guys in my row if it was their bags they a said no. The bags belonged to someone 10 rows away.
Too make a long story short they took his bags to the hold because he had 3 fair sized bags. Seen it happen a few times to others where they had to check their bags due to over head racks being full.
That is the only reason I can think people queue up so quickly
Going to have fun next week
Next monday I start in Bath at 7am head into London for a 11 am meeting at noon I catch the train to Liverpool spend the night and next day there then at 6 pm I grab a train to Bristol and the back to bath
Took a trip to Narnia today..... ok I took a wrong turn and got trapped in a cupboard for 4 hours.
Figured as I would bump this as my big few months of travel are coming up.
- End of May: will be in Uganda for work and then will be crossing into DR Congo to hike Mt Nyiragongo. Little nervous for the second part but got to do it while I’m over there — I blew it last year not going when I was in Rwanda
- July: London for work, then will be going with some coworkers to Norway and Copenhagen
- September: 2 weeks in Sri Lanka. 9 of us have signed up for a 10-day tuk tuk race around the southern half of the island
Should be a good summer.
Paris is so beautiful. (Sometimes it's pretty dirty though)
If you go to Egypt try not to spend to much time on the Sinai. Pretty dangerous for tourists right now.
how your southwest tripI wanna fly to San Fran in spring to visit a buddy out there, maybe for a week or so.
How is Bristol for a day trip? The lady and I are always trying to find some new places to go from London.
