What will they charge next?

According to the Star:

AirAsia to have check-in baggage fee

KUALA LUMPUR: Budget airline AirAsia will introduce check-in baggage fees from April 21.

The move is to defray rising fuel costs, said group chief executive officer Datuk Tony Fernandes.

The baggage fees are RM3 per bag (for online check-in) and RM5 per bag (for airport check-in).”

What will they charge next? Fee for bringing a hand baggage to the aircraft? Fee to use the scanner to scan your baggage? They might as well ask the passenger to carry their own baggage to the baggage hold on the aircraft before boarding. This will get rid of the costs to bring the baggage from the check-in counter to the aircraft.

Or maybe they will charge passengers with extra baggage on their body. Who knows what they’ll think of next?
