Four hours and 45 glorious minutes Houston to Vancouver this morning. Wireless no worky. Sweet, I was really looking forward to working extra late from the hotel room tonight. DirecTV service was spotty -- was choppy and would come and go. Admittedly, those didn't shock me they pulled a new I hadn't seen before.

I was answering e-mails and waiting until the end to board. As boarding is winding down, they announce that all bags which didn't fit under the seat would be gate checked. Overhead storage was full. Not really a surprise because they were only a couple seats short of a full flight.

Board the plane, and there are open overheads -- lots of em. I'd guess 20%-25% overhead space was available. I saw a couple bins that were literally completely empty.
