While airlines may set the fares and fees for air travel, the decisions made by passengers also come with costs. Every item on board makes a plane heavier, which burns more fuel. An airliner’s cost of operating rises with every laptop (33 cents per flight), pillow (6 cents), or magazine (5 cents) you bring along.

The best part is if your luggage is overweight you can stuff the extra weight into your carry-on or hold onto it yourself.. And the airline is okay with haha

Here in Europe some of the cheaper airlines are starting to enforcer weight restrictions on carry-on luggage to prevent just that. It seems the time when you could stuff as much as you wanted in there as long as it fitted will soon be gone.

The weight is also a question of safety. Especially carry-on bag. I think being safe is No 1. Better to take less stuff))))
