My complaint is the multiple bag charges they are going to institute. FrogDad and I recently traveled and, since he was still under a don’t-lift-more-than-5-pounds edict after surgery, I got to sling our stuff around. This hypothetical occurred to me while slinging that stuff.

The person in front of me hoists their 50 lb bag up onto the scale. There’d be no charge.

I hoist two bags totalling about 46 lbs. MUCH easier to move two 25 lb bags for an older (ahem!) woman. I’d have to pay for that second bag, even though my stuff weighs less than the previous persons.

THAT is discrimination!

Well, as long as he was there and ticketed to board & fly, wouldn’t that be his bag and your bag, 1 each.... ?
