Wink Baggage

Dear Derekvader,
Sorry, canīt agree. Luggage is a matter of choice. Oneīs weight is most often not. When my family spent a month last year in the far east we each took one small suitcase as cabin baggage. Nothing more. When you look at the number of travellers who appear to take everything including the kitchen sink, you wonder what the hell they need it all for!
There is a considerable difference between genetics, which largely determines your adult weight and sheer greed/idiocy which determines what you drag with you in terms of baggage.
Again, fine if you want to charge "big" passengers more, but only if it applies to "big" in any direction!
