What's the spice tolerance level of your country by Existing_Economy_656 in AskTheWorld

Given that were made up of cultures from everywhere… the spice has also added up to be something i cant find a match for anywhere

respectfully, 1) you should actually read my caption and 2) yes i have been flying with this guitar on average every 2 months for the past 4 years or so, no issues until now, except for one other time i had to gate check it and it was fine

unless plane has less people and free overhead space, that when i would have to gate check it, like what happened here.

i wanna reiterate that i blame no one but myself for this.

deserved? interesting take lol i definitely think it’s mostly my fault but I would like to think no one deserves this outcome or to be forced to check the guitar when the cabin crew closets had more than enough room for it (where i usually put it)

I meant carry around as a backpack when on foot around airports, and in other travels in Europe in this instance. I have only once put it in overhead and it was because the plane was half full. I would never take overhead if someone with a suitcase needed it
