The air war over hand baggage reaches the EU

Counter:
- Carry-ons can be objectively better for passengers.
That's not a counter. If carry one have more value to the consumer, that's what you charge for.
- Carry-ons are cheaper for airlines.
Not when they're running out of space and putting things in the hold anyway. Also I doubt they like always flying with a 90% empty hold. If no hold baggage was guaranteed then the plane could carry cargo and make money that way. Or have a smaller more fuel efficient plane.

Sure they would if they knew it in advance. They could sell that as cargo space.

I didn't know about this GRO luggage. It seems amazing
It is amazing. They shut down during COVID, just before I decided to buy their checked bag. I don't know how good the large one was, but there carry-on is fantastic. The only thing I'd change about it is that it has one of those built in battery ports, which I've never used in my life and is IMHO wasted space; but it was a big trend back when they designed it, and before airports and airlines started putting charging ports in everywhere.

There's only one Jeff Bezos. If he can't hire people, it's only what he can do himself in his spare time. We greatly outnumber him, even if we are only doing it in our spare time.
Yeah... And when we work together, that's called organizing and lobbying, the thing you just said should be illegal.

Read the post. I said paying people to do it should be illegal. I don't say organizing should be illegal.
