I dont support that but I could have never paid the excess. Hated hauling around that junk.
I flew BKK-HEL on the day of the crackdown (in May). The flight was full of touristy looking people and I saw that they asked quite a lot of people to put their cabin luggage on the scale. I had a heavy looking rucksack but they didn't bother to measure that and just put a cabin luggage tag on it.
