Steve Price: Australia Correspondent on Jetstar's plan to bring in charges for overhead carry-ons

from The Mike Hosking Breakfast · host Newstalk ZB

Scoffs at the latest cost-saving measures by Jetstar, as it's set to bring in charges for overhead carry-ons.  From February, all passengers will be able to bring one small under-seat bag weighing up to 10kg, but they'll have to fork out an extra $23 for any overhead luggage.  Jetstar says customers were stressing out looking for room in overhead lockers.  Australian Correspondent Steve Price told Mike Hosking he isn't buying it.  He says it's ridiculous that under a normal ticket, you can only get on the plane and stick something under your seat.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
