English: Can I stow your bag?
French: Est-ce que je peux ranger votre sac?
This phrase is especially useful as you prepare the cabin for take off or for landing, making sure that all bags are properly stowed.
Passengers sitting at certain bulkhead or emergency exit seats do not have space under the seat in front of them to stow bags. Any bags they may have will need to be stowed in the overhead bins for take off and landing, and not left at their feet.
Some passengers may be holding onto bags on their lap. Those will need to be stowed for take off and landing as well.
Also, some passengers may have tried to stow too many bags under the seat in front of them and now certain bags are protruding from under the seat and not properly stowed. You may need to offer to stow some in the bins.

Je peux=I can
