The "best" part of the Frontier Airline charge for carry-on bags (for the over-head. Stuff at your feet is still free.) is that they call is a customer enhancement! George Orwell would love it!
Amazing: The airlines charge for checked bags, so (surprise!) people try to carry on more stuff. Then the overhead bins get filled quickly (Surprise!).
So now, bin space, early boarding (to score some bin space) & checked bags become a perk or yet another source of funds.
*sigh* I can remember when flying was exciting & fun.
But when ya gotta get 'there" & "there" is too far to drive, they got us.
