I’ve been on flights where people have placed their bags in flat and sidewise then just closed the bin. Attendants then get upset when you open bins to check for space (even in cases where you saw there was space before someone closed it) because of course they are the only ones that close bins and they always check for space.
I’ve also been on flights where people have stood up to use the bathroom or adjust their bags while taxiing and then everyone has to wait on them wine the attendants just repeat on loop that they need to sit the fuck down.
The rules of planes just seem not to matter at all to some people and the rest of us have to suffer for it.
I do not understand the people that close the bins. There must be a hell for them against the people that stick their carry on in the first slot they see on a half-loaded plane and then waltz to the back.
I don’t understand the people who close the bins after putting their bag up. It’s frustrating as heck for the rest of us, but I don’t see how they think it benefits them in any way. Is it just annoying other passengers for the LoLs, or do they think there’s some logic?
I mean, sometimes the bin is just full after you put your bag in and it’s obvious that it’s full (assuming no one put their bag flat when there’s room to put it on its side). Wouldn’t you want the bins closed after that as a visual cue to how much space is left when you board and get close to your seat?
I’m talking like these types of full. Do you really need a flight attendant’s professional determination about it?
I actually want them open as a visual clue that there’s no room. Far easier a truth to assess than seeing one closed and not knowing if someone was just being a dick.
It depends, sometimes better efficiency can be achieved if bags are shifted around and letting the attendants see them in a glance can help that process faster
