As we start traveling to our sales meeting in the next several weeks, let's review some luggage etiquette. While many find it annoying to see that their locker is full when they get to their plane seat, overhead bin space above your seat is on a "first come, first serve" basis. People really don't understand, or they think that they automatically get that spot, since there aren't official rules that dictate who gets to use which bins, and thus leaving it open to interpretation & argument. So while it may be annoying, particularly when someone has room above their own seat and still, for reasons unclear, has opted for yours, or when you're invariably forced to check your carry-on because there's no more space on the aircraft, you aren't entitled to anything. Further, it is never, ever okay to move someone else's bag. Remember, rearranging bags and finding enough space for everyone's luggage was the flight attendant's job. Therefore, the cabin crew has the final say on luggage placement for safety & convenience.

I like that some airlines do have assigned overhead space for Economy Plus and higher
Let's all respect each other's bin space on flights to ensure a smooth and safe travel experience. ✈️

8moI have to disagree and call Bravo Sierra on some of this .Adam Ligeralde. and I speak as a frequent traveler where and when I traveled 75% of my time from 2011 through the pandemic and was once on the same #deltaairlines flight from SLC to BOS 5-weeks in a row in 2019. If you buy a Comfort Plus ticket or get upgraded on #deltaairlines they have large signs in the overhead bins for those customers that say this space is reserved for those Comfort Plus customers. I have seen too many times people willfully disregarding these signs, passengers carrying 3, or more, bags onboard and the airlines do nothing to stop them, and I have seen many a passenger place their roll aboard, backpack and coat in the overhead bin and this is disrespectful to the other passengers on board that place their backpack under the seat in front of them. #courtesy #weareallinthistogether #pleasefollowtherules and place your backpack under the seat in front of you so that all or more travelers have room for their roll aboards.
