I have a roller which will in principle fit in the overhead bin, but with all the stuff I carry with me it is really way too heavy <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
' />.
So, I also bring a laptop bag which will fit in the laptop sleeve of the roller with laptop etc., and just pull that out, put some ancillary equipement for the laptop in that bag too, and carry it around my shoulder. I have a coat with me and put a few lenses in the pockets.My camera(s) I pull out and put the heaviest lenses on, and again carry those around my shoulders.
Once in th eplane I put everythign back in, except for the stuff I want to use, and put the roller in the overhead bin.
So far not a problem. However, I try not to fly airlines like, e.g., Ryan Air, I have to admit. Especially on regional flights there is no way my roller would be allowed in as cabin luggage.
HTH, kind regards, Wim
