A Reddit post sparked debate after a woman claimed her husband witnessed a piece of luggage being given a first-class seat on a Delta flight due to a lack of overhead bin space.
It could sometimes be a struggle for airline passengers to find storage in an overhead bin, though one flight gave a carry-on an extra special seat. In the 'r/delta' Reddit forum, one woman shared that her husband witnessed a piece of luggage getting an upgrade, captioning the post, 'When your bag gets a first class seat.' The user claimed her husband was upgraded to first class, flying from John Wayne Airport in Orange County, California, to Sacramento International Airport.
Ignoring the fact that they were allowed to bring an oversized carry-on, provided it wasn't in somebody's seat, fair do's,' said another. One user commented, 'if a bag can't fit into the regular overhead bin, the GAs should measure it and force the passenger to pay to check it.' 'I mean, if she paid for it, what’s the issue,' questioned a user. Another added, 'The real reason they don't do upgrades.' 'I’ll be honest, this happened to me once.
Carry-on baggage may be stowed either against a passenger class divider or bulkhead if both are stressed for inertia loads, if it is restrained from shifting by FAA-approved tiedown straps or cargo nets,' FAA's bulletin reads. The bulletin also states there should be 'preboarding scanning to ensure that size and amount of passenger carry-on baggage is in accordance.
