Being a non-Japanese person I find it unique watching Japanese with the
big suitcases.  They all seem to have a strap around them that look
twice the size of the person pushing them around airports.  Usually you
will find the large suitcases in groups of people being herded around
in a pack.  I assume the suitcases are empty when leaving home and full
returning home.  And they all come with wheels, which makes it easy to
move around.

Japanese may think it strange of us Americans trying to carry our
suitcases on aircraft pushing and pulling them in the aircraft.  And
when they wont fit in the overhead yell and scream at the flight
attendants that want to check them in.  What's so important that
causes Americans to carry all there stuff on aircraft in the first
place?  And plaese two carry on's is the limit.

I have noticed on airplanes Japanese usually sit quietly reading or
listening to music.  On the other hand Americans are nosier (need my
space) and take up their seat and sometimes mine (big butts).  I have
also noticed Japanese tend to dress a lot better on airplanes than
Americans.  Since when did wearing fleece become the norm?  American
dress like crap on most flight I have been on.

I travel a lot and hate to sit next to a slob with a dirty shirt who
complains about everything.  If you want better service buy a business
or first class ticket, don't buy economy class tickets then complain
about the service.  Most travelers don't realize it, but the folks in
business and first class are subsidizing your economy ticket idiot so
you can fly cheap.
