Experts seem to think this "charging per pound" method of pricing is inevitable, probably within 2 years, maybe sooner. Do you think this is fair/efficient/practical?
I don't think its efficient or practical because they would have to weigh passengers the day of their flight to determine what their airfare will be. That means longer wait times at ticket counters and more unhappy customers.
I think this is a little overboard. Weighing baggage and charging extra if it is overweight, I'm all for that. If a passenger is so big, that they require two seats, I'm all for them having to buy two seats. But this is ridiculous.
