Thieves in Addis Ababa
My flight started in Thailand. Theft was in transit in Addis. Discovered theft on arrival in Lilongwe.
My roll-on bag was, as with others, judged too bulky. The plane was jam-packed and I was probably boarding in the last quartile. Early boarders I am sure got on with such bags.
If you can break up your stuff into smaller 'modules' that could help. I'd just say, don't allow any valuables not to enter the cabin without you. The policy allows you to keep valuables, so it shouldn't be contentious.
I was probably somewhat negligent to only protect my laptop, forgetting about my camera, when my carry on bag was diverted to the hold.
Keep your stuff close.
