The position of the weight in the aeroplane is important. A poorly balanced plane can have control difficulties. So this would only really work with carry-on baggage. Of course you could weigh the bags again separately later and work it out.
- gumby 5y agoI have been on scheduled flights where the flight attendants have had us switch seats to balance the plane. These have all been quite small regional airline flights (e.g. 1-2 layout)
- cromka 5y agoThis has happened to me twice recently with United and JetBlue, on regular-sized planes. I think I recall a recent FAA advisory for the airlines to start doing that.
