US Airways is a GARBAGE airline, why do you even fly with them or buy their cards? They are absolutely GARBAGE with a Capital G. I avoid them like the plague.

Uh? you sound pretty elitist...

nothing wrong with taking cabin baggage that passengers are entitled to. If it fits in an overhead cabin then it is his entitlement to take it onboard, if it fits under the seat then an additional piece is allowed as well.

I usually take a small bag for the overhead and a small backback (under the seat) for quick trips (2-3 day), I don't want to check bags in and endure the several extra hours it takes to check it in at origin and then collect it at the destination.

Now, I have seen people bring bags onboard that are so large that in my personal opinion should not be allowed into the cabin because they take multiple overhead spaces but then again it is for the particular airline to decide this not myself so I don't really care.

Your problem can be sumed up in the first word of your post and title - US Airways

Did you expect good or even reasonable service from this airline? if you are flying them I realize it's probably because you don't have any choice, but this airline is really bad these days at everything they do. I would probably call the credit card company and not US Air to see what they will do about it. If nothing, close the account and demand the fee back.

They have space measures that will tell if the bag is qauilfied for carry on. If not then check as required. Your complaint isd with teh airline as stated.
