For Economic Reasons
It's a growing trend among low-cost airlines . EasyJet, Ryanair, Transavia, WizzAir…. They are gradually starting to charge extra for each bag, where previously carry-on baggage was included in the flight price. " Everyone is doing it because all the companies see that, with this method, Ryanair is even more successful at filling its planes ", explains Aymé, transport specialist at Sia Partners, in La Dépêche. The logic is mainly economic. A larger and heavier bag will require more.When it comes to boarding and disembarking time, a heavy and larger-sized baggage takes more time than a light and smaller one. Time spent on the ground is not time spent in the air to make another flight. And time is money.
Additional fees range from 11€ to 70€
The prices for these "supplements" vary greatly from one company to another. With Ryanair, adding a cabin bag weighing a maximum of 10 kg can cost between 11.99€ and 29.99€. On the other hand, with Volotea, the cabin bag is free if you have selected the "priority boarding" option. Otherwise, the baggage will be charged 65€. With EasyJet, a small handbag is accepted for free, however, a cabin bag measuring 56x45x25 cm will cost between 20€ and 60€ depending on the date and destination.
