This is a problem caused by the airlines. They are now charging very large fees for checked bags and no fees for carryon bags. This has resulted in many people carrying on bags who would otherwise have checked their bags, and thereby causing the cabin baggage crisis. The solution is not to now make everyone go out and buy new luggage as a result of their new baggage charges. They should either include all baggage costs in the price of the tickets or charge baggage costs per bag, whether carryon or checked. This is most definitely NOT the fault of the passengers.
