    Several airlines have insisted they are "cracking down" on "already-existing rules", not "new" rules made. I'm in Canada, and I have been on two flights recently on WestJet, who says the "personal size" item is TINY, the size of a small purse (16 x 13 x 6 inches, which in cm is 31 x 15 x 33). I can't find a small backpack or tote that is that small, and even more annoying is the fact of when i put my bag under the seat in front of me, there was WAY more room - I could have EASILY fit a regular over-packed backpack under that. They are MESSING with us! 😆 Thanks for the video; I love your happy, amused voice narrating. Have a great week!

      That's interesting information. Maybe WestJet was just thinking about your legroom? Haha. Seriously, that is pretty annoying. I'd love to know their reasoning? They can't just be MESSING with us...right? BTW so glad you enjoy the narration! Thank you so much for watching!

    The reason of many passengers start to use a carry on more often ,is because they charge too much to dispatch the luggage, also if they want to speed up the boarding mess with people in the middle of the alley, the need to start to call first the people who go to the back of the plane instead to call the first rows as priority, these people, really feel more important because of that? Fill the back first to avoid the mess.

      There is a reason they don't do this. New planes are lighter and if you filled the back first they tip back. It happened in Chicago last year. They load the bags into the front first and unload the bags from the back first. Once I was in a plane and it took soo long unloading the baggage was already off the flight attendant said "we needed to hurry (a person had blocked the aisle, and the whole aisle had emptied) or we were going to tip back."

      @smoothsketch you are correct. Delta has not and will not be changing their carry-on size limits. That is an error on our part and we apologize. There's no excuse for our faulty reporting. We can only promise to do better moving forward. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

      I think the Rimowa carry on agrees with you. It’s significantly lighter (4.9lbs) than almost any other bag but it’s also pretty pricey at $760. They must know something 🤔🤣

    I was bringing 4 bottles of Romanian cognac (duty free) back from Romania to the US. We had a flight change in Warsaw, Poland and they told me my carry-on was too heavy. So I transferred the bottles to my wife's carry-on as her carry-on bag weight had already been checked. They saw us doing it and didn't say a word to us.

    Delta has been doing the advance gate check dance for a while now. Encountered it on a RT NYC-SFO trip in August. I'm okay with it as long as they don't charge me. At least the bags don't go through that luggage maze after the regular check-in.

    I think the other posters mean ScotteVest and uses the American usage of the word 'vest'. We don't fly anywhere any more. The train takes us to Madrid or the car takes us to the UK via the Channel Tunnel - no f-ing about with baggage restrictions.

    Scotty Vest has been my hack for years, use to be a pain but with Clear, I can put many of my electronics in its various pockets and walk through boarding process, sometimes TSA takes a second look at it but In ever had to secondary screening. Only time I was called out while boarding was when I was using a Peak Design pack and the agent asked if I was a photographer, I said yes and they said we need to weigh that, i was .02 under the weight limit, after that flight I started using the vest
