P.Gill asked:


Wouldn’t it be fairer if it was based on total weight of person and luggage?

The reason that I ask is that I recently had to pay excess baggage on my return from a bicycle touring trip. My bike and other gear weighed in at 37kgs.

I then spent the next 8hrs shoehorned between two larger passengers who individually would have weighed more than myself and my luggage.

If the reason you have to pay excess baggage is the weight of the articles then logically the weight of the passengers themselves contributes to this.
