Interesting article from USA Today in the Sky. Prior to fees being institiuted for checking bags, I almost always checked a bag. With the liquid worries at TSA checkpoints, it was just easier to not deal with trying to carry on a bag. Start charging me to check a bag, and, yeah, I'm going to start carrying on my stuff. I have started sitting further back on the plane to ensure that there is still room in the overhead bins for my bag; before I always tried to sit as far forward as possible. Last in, first off made sense to me. I have found that earlier in, later off with bag in hand is actually quicker so I must thank the airlines for speeding up my travel experience.
Oh yeah, after going through the airport, the half marathon that I'm traveling to is usually a piece of cake!!!
For my January 2 run trip, I have decided that carrying on and doing laundry after my first race will be cheaper and more efficient than packing enough for the entire trip. Plus, it'll be nice recovery time between races.
