Narrative:
Today we were booked to 36 passengers. When we started boarding the captain told me 'we have a little weight and balance issue so if you see a passenger come on board with more than one personal item its ok; let them thru. We had crew members; dead headers and non-revs. Some came with more than one bag and maybe 3 more passengers with laptop bags and a purse or back pack.
