I guess you’re being specific. I don’t travel with small animals nor an oxygen concentrator. I’ve have seen people switched out of exit rows for far less. In looking up the rules for those, Southwest and a few others specifically state that these are reasons that one cannot be in an exit row.

The exit row non-baggage…

OP mentions “you likely won’t have any storage beneath a seat in front of you.”.  Explicitly, this means that your carry-ons (even the small one) has to go up top.  This applies to exit rows, too. 

I can try this out.  I usually just disassemble and rinse away any stuck grinds before re-assembling and frothing the soap.

This was one of the movies that last messed me up. I remember the music playing in a LOTR trailer and I was like wtf wtf wtf.  My friends knew what I was going on about.

Great idea. I got the notification quickly, but had trouble finding the post to reply to. It’s 4 days later and they just arrived from some printing service.  They just lack the key from original design, but they look pretty great =)

My understanding was that they were sorry for “how they did it” instead of “what they did”

Oooh, I’m really thrown by you calling me a jerk /s. May my knees be in your back on an international flight.  That’s even w/o reclining back.

Umm if you try to buy fromthem: “Sorry, but we have run out of Knee Defenders™... Temporarily.” It’s been years

They don’t sell them anymore.  I’ve looked

They had key locks and kind of blended in to the planes that are mostly grey/beige

I’m tall, too... My knees usually restrict how far back they can go. Worst case was when I went up to use the bathroom and returned to a full recline. In sliding in, I probably kneed thru the seat pretty high and slid down. The person was uncomfortable enough to recline at a more normal angle.

Maybe the ultralight backpacking ethos is poking out and reflects on my backpacking setup: a 700ml titanium cup that can hold a small isobutane canister, BRS UL stove, a piezo-electric igniter, a mini-bic as a backup, and some scrap cloth. I left out the piezo earlier since it’s usually not something people have. A…

I’d imagine that it would start on your sign up date... can sign up on the 1st.

CA has always had a threat of earthquakes, so emergency kits are useful. I’ve thought about my go-bag in terms of an backpacking kit:

It would have been helpful to have mentioned this in the first paragraph: “Modern Melanesians, who today inhabit the geographical region stretching from New Guinea out to Fiji” 

I concur.  I posted this a top level reply.  

Unfortunately, I’ve seen enough of these. As much of life, when driving you’re supposed to be predictable to those around you. I find these buggers to be pretty erratic. In PacHeights and Laurel Heights, they randomly stop in the middle of a block with no one in front of them.  In honking, it takes a while for them to…

I concur w/ Japanese food in general.  San Francisco has a “Volcano Curry of Japan”.  They normally have no spicy, mild, medium, hot, volcano, 2x volcano on their menu.  I know they go up to 5 as a secret of sorts.  5 on an empty stomach will burn my stomach, so 4 will kill most people and won’t give me a tummy ache

I don’t own a dog, but as a solo road-trip’er, you can hide stuff in the footwells with these things

It’s missing spaces. Something like: All the best for you after a legendary career
