Excuse me, is there an empty seat where I can place this large luggage?

Romaji: Sumimasen, kono ōkina nimotsu o okeru kūseki wa arimasu ka? / Reply Romaji: Hai, achira no seki deshitara aite imasu yo.

はい、あちらの席でしたら空いていますよ。

Yes, that seat over there is empty.

Point to your luggage, then make an inquiring gesture towards potential empty seats.

Do not block aisles or emergency exits with luggage. Always be mindful of other passengers and their space.
