JAFcon I doubt very very much if there is any suggestion, other than here, that people will carry hold luggage anywhere.

It will be checked in and presumably pre paid according to weight.

I would say that RYR are driving this for 2 reasons.

1. To further reduce costs i.e. what he pays for baggage handling he makes in customer charges.
2. A general reduction in hold luggage which will further assist those incredible 25 minute turn rounds.

Remember all the fuss about RYR only allowing 15kg luggage ? Well most of the other low cost carriers have ended up following MOL.

A bold move this one and gets my congratulations if it keeps getting me to London on time and for a very reasonable fare
