hand luggage rules soft rucksacks

[velosam]

I realise this is a dumb question, but my laptop bag is bigger than than the size specified but I am carrying it half empty so I can squeeze it into a much smaller space and can probably pass the 'cage' test they have to measure bags.

Presumably that should be OK?

I've not had problems in recent times.

Carrying a rucksack that just fits in the 'cage', plus a small backpack laptop bag.

If the laptop bag will squish under the seat in front of you, they don't seem too bothered.

Great, thanks, one thing less to worry about and I can carry food it in
