British Airways Begins Crackdown as Luggage Woes Go International
Skift Take
IATA had a good idea, it just didn't implement it with any authority.
Ever since the inception of airline checked baggage fees there's been a war between passengers and airlines over in-cabin bin space.
Frugal passengers tired of paying extra fees are cramming as much as they can into their free hand baggageĀ allotment, soaking up bin space and slowing down the boarding process in stride. With tight schedules and operations to maintain, the airlines are conversely trying to discourage as many carry-onĀ bags as possible.
