I'm not sure I understand this entirely, but I am glad they actually made someone check a piece of luggage that was too big. Why do people even go to the plane with something too big, or multiple bags? I'm tired of the airlines doing nothing about it. I am tired of having to put my "legal size" carry-on at my feet, because rude people bring more than they are supposed to, and put it all in the overhead space. I usually book my flights early, and used to always book them near the front of the plane. I now book them further back, because many times the overhead bins are full before the front of the plane gets to load. I have watched people go on the plane with huge bags, or 3-4 items, and nothing is said. I watched one man fill up an entire overhead bin by himself. There is no way I am checking MY bag, when I only have one, and it is legal, because I do not expect to have anything of value in it when I reach my destination, and I SHOULDN"T HAVE TO. If the rules are enforced, I should have a space for my bag. Delta has been one of the worsst for this, and is one of the reasons I no longer fly with Delta. At least in this case, I agree with the airlines.
