Everyone travels with some baggage. By your theory people who don't use the overhead bins subsidize those that do. Want a truly fair method, charge based on weight of the passenger and their luggage. My checked bag and me would barely tip 225. If we're so concerned with subsidizing everyone else why should I pay the same as someone who's 300 plus baggage? Also humorous that one of the more socialist posters is worried about people subsidizing others.
