Wow, I never knew any airlines charged for using the overhead bins! What's next, $1 to use the bathroom?

They did that because people were trying to bring way too much stuff on the airplane. They decided to make it more expensive to bring big bags inside the cabin than to check them, in order to encourage people to check the bags.

It makes the boarding and deplaning processes much faster.


If you want to see an absurd list of charges, see Ryan air in Europe.
