Aussie airlines crack down on oversized cabin luggage
Qantas offshoot Jetstar is signing up dedicated check-in staff to ensure that passengers aren't abusing carry-on rules when they should be checking large or heavy luggage instead of stuffing it into the overhead bins. (www.ausbt.com.au) Más...I travel frequently on Jetstar and only carry a shoulder bag on board. Often I cant find a locker space within cooee of my seat because of people who don't care and are selfish. Just enforce the "does it fit measure and the scales at boarding gate. That will not slow boarding as much as passengers trying to find locker space somewhere on the plane. If it don't fit you are off because you know the rules. Check it in chump.
Fat chance of that lasting..............

Jetstar is the only airline I've had to check luggage with in 14 years. It was annoying.
Oops, sorry folks, I don't normally whinge so much about things like this. But actually I'm really happy they are starting to crack down on this. I hate seeing these people who just think they can bring their entire contents of their house including the kitchen sink on a 2 hour flight to Sydney..
