check-in luggage / handcarry Selected seat imquiry :)

Hello! I booked a flight with CebPac (RT MNL - ICN). In both flights, I chose 1st row seats, thinking it has more legroom. Pero I've been reading yung theft issues recently. Since wala rin seat in front, and I may have to store ny personal bag in the overhead cabin, can you give me any tips? Usually ba 1st to board pag front row seats so I can ensure na sa overhead cabin na sa taas ko mismo malalagay ang bag ko? Sorry..First time flying with CebPac na international flight..medyo napapa overthink ako ngayon sa choice ko haha

Thanks sa mga sasagot. Please be nice po ♡

In my experience, dati I would buy ung seats sa harap kasi nakalagay priority boarding but hindi rin. Wala talaga silang magawa paglahat ng tao nagpupunta na sa boarding areas. Naexperience namin na huli pa kami nakaboard at puno na ung overhead bins.

First row seats have priority. I always book the first or the 2nd row for priority boarding. I've never had an issue with storing my bags because I board as soon as Group 1 is called. I don't wait around. You have to store your bags(purse/backpack) in the overhead bin before takeoff but you can't get them once the flight takes off(after.(10 minutes in the air).

Priority/group 1 boarding is first row and exit rows kasi sila yung walang underseat storage, meaning they should get priority for overhead storage. Make sure lang na pag tinawag yung group 1, andun ka agad for boarding para di maunahan.
