I don't have time to read through all 5 pages, so forgive me if these suggestions have already been put out there.
1. A good alternative to the LW stealth (15lbs empty btw) is StrongBags, who also make the best food bag.
2. I would find out if your airline provides ship headsets (Eagle does) before you buy a brand like DCs.
3. If you go the full size flight kit route, don't spend too much as I see most airlines switching to Ipads over the next couple of years, including the majors.
4. Learn to military roll your cloths to fit a weeks worth of cloths in your roller board. (Youtube it)
5. Its probably been said, but don't sleep with the FAs.

Thanks all.
What are you talking about?
A friend at SKW just Facebooked me the same suggestion. I wonder if it's TSO approved.

I second the Bose QC15 + UFlyMic Combination.

Never leave a paper trail when you don't have to!
Can you elaborate on the significance of this...?
