Um so they board from back to front..... does this allow back passengers to put bags at front of plane overhead?

Edits: Seriously what a c**kup..... there are no spaces overhead to front door to this stupid system!
So 6 bottles of wine under my feet!
Of course they joined two flights together which lost my spacer seat beside me!!!!
Worse than Jetstar and Virgin..... I moved from 26 to 6 and thinking the system would be like overseas front passengers first and work back!
#wellitisacreditcard free flight😜


Edit 2: Left noise cancel headphones ON and flattened battery before flight after charging yesterday 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤬🤬🤬


Edit 3: Seems the Row behind me(DYKWIA) got the spare middle seat!!!

Edit4: Circle work and the plane arrived late!
Resulting in the Graze & Grill priority pass shop closed! But he did scan and say my Citi Signature Visa priority pass is valid.... but not used in his check?
Still shows two passes left☑️
Then the security doors to leave were locked and 25 people gathered before the manual release allowed us to get to bag collection!
Wine survived in checked baggage!

I don't think there's any policy that explicitly states where passengers can put their bags (except for them having to use bins in their class of travel)

Given that Biz should be boarded first, in theory the Biz bins should be filled by Biz passengers - although a Plats and others also board 'first', the bins sometimes fill early! Plaus the DYKWIA types who bring 2 large carry-ons/suit packs etc.

I don't think there's any policy that explicitly states where passengers can put their bags (except for them having to use bins in their class of travel)

I don't think that's an actual policy is it? If it is, its failing (surprise!).
