why would you climb a flight bag?

 

Helps get up to the second deck on the 747.

 

Whatever you carry your stuff in, do not be an optimist while doing a turn. The airplane will break and you will smell.

While I'm here, where do you put all your previous airline and military stickers on a backpack? My folks bought me an expensive wheeled chart case for X-Mas 40 years ago, not only does it double as a "green" Publix grocery bag on weekends, but when I retire (at 67) then I'll obviously need it for my weekly dispensary visits. I'm throwing out pearls here guys.

 

If I wear a backpack but wear the lanyard, do the two cancel eachother out??? 🤔

 

I found a Fanny pack big enough for my headset and iPad. Score.

 

One time I wore a backpack for an assignment. It was hard squeezing past the 30 flight attendants in the 20 person capacity crew room with that thing on. It was harder to slide to a working computer to check in but lucky for me, the third one turned on. As I headed to the gate, I noticed as I stepped over a family of 8 blocking the boarding lane, one of the kids had the same backpack as mine. That was pretty cool, Jansport for the win. As I weaved through the line of passengers waiting for the absent gate agent, I noticed a teenage wheel chair pusher on their phone by the door. I asked them if they've seen the gate agent and I got a blank stare. 10 minutes later the armed security guard came up to watch over the scene, we talked about the flight to Houston. 15 minutes later the plane showed up, white nose cone on yellow paint. 5 minutes later the gate agent showed up. They parked the plane. By the time I could make my way down the jetbridge, the inbound crew already shut the plane down. "good airplane, brakes are hot, sorry we didn't see you we would have left it running" said the Captain. "It's ok I replied". I slide into my seat, power the bird up, notice its 88 degrees in the cabin. Oh there's no air available at this gate, I'll get the APU on after all we only have 25 minutes till we're supposed to push. Still waiting on the cleaners but hell I don't pay the fuel bill. No one is answering in ops, I'll run up to the gate to ask the gate agent to call the cleaners. I get back up top, tell the agent we need cleaners. Right as I turn around to head back to the gate, I notice someone tweeting something to Spirit on their phone. I don't normally look at other people's phones but this got my attention. I say "GREAT FLIGHT EXPERIENCE SO FAR BUT THE PILOT WAS WEARING A BACKPACK #NEVERAGAIN #SPIRITAIRLINES #TRASH #UNPROFESSIONAL"

You need to take a lude and relax. Bet you are on a bunch of no fly lists.

 

This isn’t cargo. Different appearance standards.

Also have never seen a ups pilot with a backpack actually on their back in the terminal.

 

Exactly. I wear a cumber bun.

 

Please find a better day trip bag that’ll hold a spare change of underwear, a tooth brush and the company iPad. Until we stop doing 75% 1/2 day trips the backpack is the way to go.

(I am anti both straps over the shoulder however, at least in the terminal)
