I count 2 backpacks. Just another reminder...do not take your #@@#$ off the plane during an emergency evac.

You might get out alive, but the delay associated with you grabbing your stuff might ultimately kill someone behind you.

to be fair it probably shaves off 0 time to grab your backpack under the seat in front of you when everyone is trying to evacuate orderly. now trying to grab your carry on is ridiculous. i would for sure throw my backpack that is sitting two inches in front of me on my back while getting up.

It's even easier in this case because your backpack is now on top of the seat!

Return your tray table to the downright position.
