>The bonus for Ryanair workers who intercept passengers with oversized cabin bags will rise from €1.50 to €2.50 per bag
>Ryanair passengers are allowed a free bag to take on board, but can be charged up to £75
Wow a 3% comission, so *everyone* is getting ripped off here.

There’s just something so utterly predatory about the flight industry.
It’s not like a bus where you can just wait 10 minutes for the next one. people who are flying HAVE to get on that plane. They can charge whatever they like and keep you at ransom.
I remember a few years back I had a flight to germany with a stop over in the netherlands. I was told at the desk that they could guarantee my flight to the Netherlands but couldn’t guarantee my flight to Germany because they had over booked.
I literally had no recourse. Just go to the Netherlands and hope my connecting flight that I paid for has room for me? I swore never to fly with KLM ever again, but quickly discovered that overbooking flights by 30% is common practice in the industry, and people who paid to leave on a flight being forced to wait potentially overnight is not uncommon.
The only way around it is to pay an extra £15 “optional” charge to book a specific seat number.
I know this has nothing to do with the article posted but there’s just absolutely zero stopping them is there?

This behaviour is simply predatory, I’ve seen bags clearly fit in the box before and they still state it’s oversized and force you to pay a fine

I have taken Ryan air flights at least once a fortnight sometimes twice a week, for 4 years, never had an issue with the baggage. I am sure there is some examples of overzealous gate agents that tell you it doesn’t fit, but, if you follow the rules you are okay.
If you want a bigger cabin bag, buy priority or fly another airline.
Ryanair is minimal offerings, for often a minimal price

Saw something on a legal reddit about staff saying bags are too large even if they fit in the measuring boxes perfectly and the airline defend these “staff decisions”.

There should be a surcharge on overweight people too.
How is it fair a 100KG person can take say 25KG luggage yet a 70KG person is limited to the same 25KG.
Charge overweight people extra the same way baggage which is overweight is charged extra.
