Have I bought the wrong type of luggage to take in to the cabin of my Emirates flight?

score:5

Airlines are not concerned about whether carry on luggage is soft or hard sided, as long as it fits their size limits.

These days more and more airlines ask people with the maximum size of allowed hand luggage to gate check it if the plane is full or even when they have not paid extra to be allowed to bring it aboard.
For that is also does not matter whether it is soft or hard sided, I have repeatedly had my soft sided 'in cabin' bag been given the tag 'may need to be gate checked'. (I have been lucky enough to never have to hand it over.)

In case you have to hand it over at the gate, you are allowed to take out those things that should not go in the hold, like your laptop and your medication. So have a smaller bag inside the case, so you can easily take your things out of your case and into the plane.
