I'm also impressed with how the overhead bins have changed in newer aircraft. Flight out was on a 737-700 with old style bins which were filled to the brim with peoples crap. Flight back was on a Max 8 and those bins ar4e massive, there was room to spare for everything.
I really liked at John-Wayne this winter, they cut the BS and started telling people they could "gate check" their carry-on at the check-in counter if they wanted to save the $30 and get ride of the bag now.
