I am glad that I am not Flybe cabin crew,watching what some pax manage to blag through check in as hand baggage even when the hold is free.
Also will the d8 be in trim if there is an almost empty boot?,if not then they will still have to pay loaders to put ballast in and burn extra gas humping it around.
Sounds like an attempt to pay even less for ground handling than please their customers.
Also at check in, thats hold baggage sir,no its not ,yes it is bla bla bla.....
