Tourist cities should have hotel rooms by the hour that are actually clean when you just want to take a nap.

The real trick is to just use whichever overhead you see open as you approach your seat. It doesn’t need to be directly above your seat. You’re going to have to pass by it again on your way out of the plane anyways, so it’s not like you’ll be delaying anything during deboarding.

Which accelerated people’s desire to get on first, they know people will take over the compartments above. This is a solution for you, but makes other’s lives more difficult.

It depends entirely on how the airline boards their plane. If they board front-to-back (like boarding first class early) then any open spots in the front are just that: Open. The people sitting there have already boarded.

You are the problem my idea would solve. Those who sit at the front cannot get to the back to use open space, and you took theirs. Stop doing this. Everyone hates you for it.

I can't imagine the annoyance and pain of being in a front seat, but my carryon is at the back of the plane. That is going to make deboarding super fun for all of us.
