What happens now when you are onboard and there is not overhead space for your bag and it has to be checked and taken out to be put underneath? Do you still have to pay a baggage fee? Or is this a good work-around to get a checked bag without having to pay for it?
If the staff gate checks your bag, then you do not pay a luggage fee.
