No overweight baggage anymore, please

Since everyone is cutting costs around the world (especially in the United States) people are warned that the fines for overweight baggage will double or triple in the coming months. Even low-cost airlines will be charging hefty fines to people who don’t seem to realize what “carry-on” baggage really means.

If you want to bring lots of stuff, make sure that you tag them properly and pay the baggage fee. This is the only way to avoid the annoying $30 or more in fines; just pay the fees up front, so you won’t have to deal with irate airline people later after you arrive, or before you ride the plane.
