As is the policy of charging for bags which I blame for originally taking us in this direction. The simple truth is that airlines would prefer everybody to carry their own cargo on board than to pay baggage handlers to do it for you. And now if there‘s too much baggage on board because of this unbundling, it‘s the passengers‘ fault.
