I'll get on a transatlantic plane without carry-on luggage when they pry it from my cold dead hands.

(Or when they pay me the full replacement price of my checked luggage when I board. On the unlikely chance I ever see it again, and on time too, I'll gladly refund the money... minus a modest handling charge. AND they must have at least three decent full-length novels in the passenger cabin for me, as that's how many I'll need.)

My guess is they (the airlines) will get over it, at least to the extent of allowing books and a bottle of water again. But it'll be no fun for the next six months or a year.

I'd say so too. I think carry-ons will be limited (how much depends on the bureaucrats) for a long time, though -- maybe indefinitely.
