That's about how I do it too. I don't see any reason to jump up, and sometimes
have to stand while all bent over because I can't get into the aisle and the
overhead storage is low, and be in that position for 5 minutes. When the aisle
starts clearing 2 or 3 rows ahead, I stand up, grab my junk, and by that time I
just walk off the plane. No problem. _Still_ get to baggage claim before my
bags.

And, BTW, I _normally_ sit at the back of the plane. This means I get to board
in the 1st wave after 1st class, its not so far to the lavatory, and if a plane
crashes, the survivors are usually the ones that are sitting near the tail
section. Plus, I _can_ _sit_ and wait, walk to the baggage claim, and its not
as long to _stand_ there waiting for the bags (unless its US Air, of course,
and then the wait could be 8 days, or... forever.)

Really?! Well then, godammit, why don't you label *YOUR TIME* so those
so undeserving can ID it and not waste it?

Alternatively, you can go **** yourself and take your ****ing turn like
the civilized section of society.

Nope. The rush to get off the aircraft gets you ahead by a modest
amount every time. The rush to be first to the next traffic control
device often gets you ahead not at all, but occasionally pays off
big-time, as when you accelerate out of a pattern of hitting every red
light and into one where you hit every green (or fresh yellow)

Nope. It's not really predictable, as the plane has several baggage
compartments and the baggage gets moved around a lot on the way from
the terminal to the plane. I've had multiple bags of my own
(checked at the same time) come near the end and near the beginning.

Of course, sometimes I don't have baggage.

And if you'd gotten off early, you'd be that much nearer the front of
that long line.
