Replying to An Idea to Limit Baggage Fees
I travel a lot and I'm sick of getting raped with baggage fees. I usually have two checked bags weighing less than 40lbs each. I've paid hundreds of dollars in baggage fees in the past year and a half. But you know what pisses me off is there's a beached wale standing behind me in line with one bag but combined together they weigh like 300+ lbs and it doesn't get an over weight fee. By no means am I tiny but I'm not a lard balloon either.
So I propose airlines come up with a reasonable weight for people and their bags and have people jump on the scale with their luggage, then have increments of fees for every 25lbs you go over. What do you think? I'm off to the airport in an hour and I'm going to run it by a few people..
