My comment was more about the fees. The law is actually relating to the carry on bags which are separate, sorry for being confusing.
The EU law is good if the ticket price doesn't rise up, but I fear it will go up the same amount as the bag used to cost.
It also removes the ability to optimise. Even if you pack light, buy clothes at the destination, or send your stuff by mail - you still pay for a bag. And as another poster said, it'll encourage people to take more luggage, which won't all fit in the overhead compartments.
- attendant3446 1y agoDoes it actually cost the airline more money to allow this? They already allow underseat luggage, where you can store even heavier bags. They were limiting the size of the bag unnecessarily (even though there is plenty of room under the seat for a bigger bag). I think they will raise the prices at first, but eventually they will find another way to extort money from passengers and having a reasonably sized carry-on bag will become norm.
