Yes same route on the turnpike, it’s a Boring route but the quickest, driving through the SunPass toll lanes is the best saves stopping.

We land at 2ish.. What time did u land and how long did the drive take? Was it straight forward finding the turnpike from the airport, looking at the map you head towards the i95. Enjoy your holiday.

Yes taright up the 95 doddle 9f a drive little busy at the beginning but easy after FLL we were probably 9n the same flight AA landed 215 we were on our way by 4 aft3 screwing up car hire and feeding DD who had eaten noth8ng 8n the plane. Staying overnight for me is a waste of day I know others disagree but I would rather spend one day travell8ng than 2

I've done the journey in one go and also done the stopover. I think it depends on itinerary and when you land as would defo do the drive in one go again. Very easy drive and plenty of services to take a break at.

As you said it’s all about give and take I would not recline I fact I only recline if the person in front or behind me does (if in economy) as I know it makes other people uncomftable. There are loads of things that you can do on a plane that annoy or reduce the comfort of others in flights but most people don’t because they are considerate.

Do you honestly think that I should have to put my small bag away from me because others have huge bags ? Do you disagree that if everyone took smaller hand luggage that there would never be an issue with lockers ?

Surely knowing that bringing large amounts of hand luggage will take up more space than in the bin above your seat is a very selfish thing to do.
You and I are never going to agree over this, so I’ll leave it at that.

Are you not able to even agree that if everyone only brought on board a personal item only that there would be space for everyone where they wanted it ?

Seriously think you need to chill as
If you want to talk about rules what rule do you think I would breaking by removing your bag from the bin above my seat ? Answer none, so crying to the cabin crew would do no good.

I have done it before and if I have to fly Economy no doubt I will be doing it again and the cabin crew if have to get involved will do the same again move the bag I have removed somewhere else or get the owner to stow it under the seat in front of them everyone is happy

Bring in what you want as long as it does not effect me, if it does effect me I will address it back to you and then it’s your problem not mine.

Very simply if everyone brings one small bag there is no issue, but as it does not suit you think it’s ok to do what you want it’s not if it effects other people regardless of whether it’s allowed or not.

There are hundreds of things we can do every day that are allowed that will have negative effect on other people some of us do it some of us don’t. I very much fall into the do unto others camp however I will not put up with people doing selfish things that effect me or my family moving cases is just one example of that.
