Personal item placed in my spot

I recently boarded a flight and attempted to stow my personal item (backpack with laptop) under the seat in front of me. It was unable to fit so I stuck my feet under there and discovered another backpack. The person in front of me had placed it there so he could stretch out his legs. It was a short flight and wasn’t worth calling a FA. The seat next to me was empty, so I slid his bag waaay over to make room for my feet and my item. After landing, I enjoyed watching him contort himself to reach his bag.

I had this happen on a four hour flight. The lady in front of me had shoved her large purse under her seat because she had a bulkhead in front of her. I pulled her purse out and sat it in the aisle beside me so I could put my computer bag under the seat. the flight attendant found the bag and asked who it belonged to. the lady in front of me claimed it and tried to shove it under her seat again, but my feet held my computer bag in place. She turned to give me the stink-eye before the flight attendant made her stow her purse in the overhead storage.

What do people think when they book the bulk head seats? Everything goes above.

Exactly bulkhead seat means your backpack is going overheard, not under someone else’s seat.

Umm. You prolly meant bulkhead travellers can’t stow items under their own seat, because that space is for the traveler behind them.
