I had to check my carry-on at the gate from SNA to EWR last night.
Seems that by the time they got around to boarding group 4, (I was third in line) all the overheads were filled. Thank-you groups 2 and 3. United let them stow their under-seat items in the overheads - so - no room for group 4 carry-ons.
No charge, because my ticket said one carry-on. (Up one level from the super-econ mode.)
Flight crew and attendants were excellent. They don't make the rules.
No worries, my bag came out roughly the same time my wife's came out on the carousel, and... away we go.

I usually don't fly anywhere around a holiday, but it was granson's 5th b'day, and we've never been out for the occasion (Labor Day weekend). Probably be another 5 years before we do that again.
