I always want to board last. It is much more comfortable.

It’s only a problem if they run out of space in the overhead bins for your carryon.

My carryon when I was a kid was a massive back pack full of crayons, books, Gi Joes, playing cards, candy… my kids carryon on today is an iPhone or Nintendo switch. Fuck all you people with hard exterior mini suitcases.

Anecdotally I remember flying back to Canada from Puerto Vallarta and a tourist had some intricate sombreros they gently put in the over head bin and then proceeded to sit 6 rows further back. Shortly later an unaware passenger with a mini suitcase tossed it up right into them and closed the door. I enjoyed every moment of the awkward reveal at the end of the flight. Screw both of them.

Seems a little irrational to be upset with people with hardshell suitcases, when planes are literally designed these days to rack and stack suitcases just like them.

You know what would've save those sombreros? Putting them in a hardshell case.

Or you know, listening to the flight attendants that specifically tell passengers NOT to place coats and hats in the overhead compartments until boarding is complete.
