Spirit Airlines thinks this is acceptable. Charging for carry on luggage? What do you think? Sure it frees up the security lines a little bit and helps the lines move quicker but at what cost? Spirit Airlines is charging $30 for those that pay in advance and $45 for passengers who wait until they get to the boarding gate to pay. Apparently Spirit offers the lowest prices compared to the rest of the airlines and they feel that the fees are not that big of a deal.
This new revenue model that airlines are putting into effect is one way to cut off the amount of carry on luggage passengers bring with them. One wonders if this will cause passengers to go to other airlines that do not charge a fee. Do you think it will catch on with the bigger airline companies? Or will this be a blunder that goes down in the Spirit Airlines’ record books? Post your opinions and comments below.
