When you use another airline you downsize to maybe take one checked (paid for) piece of luggage. Or shove stuff in a carry on.

It seems ironic the airlines that charge an arm and a leg for baggage, don’t have the luggage issue from all the weather delays?

Ironic? Wouldn’t common sense tell us that other airline travelers couldn’t bring the luggage they wanted? How many of those other airline travelers had to ship and pay extra to move their luggage contents where they wanted them?

This was one of those freak weather events combined with some of the biggest flying days of the year. It will all be sorted out and be something our children and grandchildren will remember. I’m amazed how people packed their medications in luggage.

They can go after Southwest and fold them, but then look at the mess we’re left with afterward.
