When I travel solo, it's with one shoulder bag I usually just shove under my seat, don't even need the overhead. I'm instantly ready, but everyone is in my waaaay.

I’ve noticed more and more people taking sooo much stuff with them on board too. Like they think they are pioneers and need a covered wagons worth of provisions to weather the trip from ATL to LAX.
I suppose some of that can be blamed on the airlines for steep baggage fees but holy crap do people try and take way too much junk with them everywhere they go. So they all take 10 min to unpack.

It's the fucking trolley warriors....they take as much stuff as possible inside the cabin, to avoid checking baggage.
Of course the time they save at the baggage belt, they waste for themselves and everybody else when disembarking the plane. -

And sadly those people are not wrong, I’ve had my luggage lost twice, and they don’t pay you back for that.

Most likely, they pay something like $5/lb of lost luggage, which is not nearly enough
I was lucky to eventually get the lost bags instead of a useless payment when my bags were lost

Travel insurance? Regulation? Out of any insurance worth paying for, I think travel insurance is like top of the line. Anything goes wrong while travelling (stolen stuff, lost/delayed baggage/damaged rental car/cancelled flights/etc.) gives me a decent payback. I pay like 120 USD/yr.
Regarding regulations: At least in the EU/EEA we have some decent regulations requiring airlines to reimburse you if they lose or delay your baggage.

Next time I will fly anywhere, I'll make sure to get that travel insurance, thanks for a hint

The great thing is, it's not just for flights! My travel insurance gives me coverage as long as I'm travelling outside my home. It literally covers damage to my bike if I'm visiting my parents for the weekend, or road assistance if my car breaks down on my way to a hike.
That's essentially why I have it: Pretty much everything I bring with me on any trip that's not to-from work is covered.
