For what it’s worth I’ve never had problems finding overhead space for my cabin baggage on DY flights on routes where Norwegian and SAS both had same-day non-stop service for the city pairs. The same can’t be said of some of my SAS intra-Europe flights.
I doubt it is about the money, it is more about the inconvenience. When the travel agent forgets to add a carry one and the traveller has to go through the motions at the airport. Or generally if the travellers have to pay it themselves every time they go flying.
But let's see what happens.
