A NEW term called “luggage rage” has been causing chaos for airline passengers – here’s how to avoid it
Airlines are beginning to increase prices for checked luggage and are cracking down on carry-ons, according to Elliot Report.

This has led to outrage from passengers, who have dubbed it “luggage rage”, as they struggle to downsize or are forced to pay extra for their baggage.
As a result, reports of passengers having luggage tantrums have begun to spread, with no real solution in sight.
One passenger was asked to pay a whopping £50 after crew members claimed her carry-on was too big for the flight.
Unable to pay, she angrily unpacked her bag and tossed her personal belongings.
New airline rules have led companies to focus their efforts on generating more revenue from cabin luggage.
This means passengers will face higher check-in fees for their bags and smaller spaces for their carry-ons.
Some travellers have had to rip wheels off their suitcases and cut handles or straps of their backpacks to avoid paying extra.
This infuriates passengers, who are forced to rearrange their luggage in front of fellow travellers, hence the term “luggage rage.”
Jay Ternavan, founder of Jayway Travel, said: “The aircraft cabin is a stressful and vulnerable place to be and pushes people to angry outbursts more often than is the case in other places.”
To avoid becoming the latest passenger to experience “luggage rage,” travellers should check the rules of the airline they’re flying with before packing.
Airlines in Southeast Asia and Australia are notoriously strict with luggage size, Elliot Report added.
One passenger was asked to pay an extra £40 by an Australian airline because their bag was over the limit by less than a pound.
Another tip for travellers is to avoid over-packing to prevent giving the airline a chance to impose a fee.
Instead, passengers should aim to fit all their luggage into a small, regulation-size carry-on while being careful not to overdo it.
Kimberly Davis, travel advisor, said: “Look, if you haven’t figured out by now that your oversized carry-on isn’t going to fit over your seat, I don’t know where you’ve been for the last decade.”
Finally, to avoid having a meltdown over luggage travellers should steer clear of airlines known for trying to squeeze the most out of their passengers.
Airlines that advertise themselves as “ultra-low fare” or “discount” carrier are likely to cause a large amount of “luggage rage” amongst its customers.
However, Thomas Plante, a Californian psychologists, claims the easiest way to avoid “luggage rage” is to change your mindset.
“Lower your expectations,” he added.
It comes after travellers with hand luggage breathed a sigh of relief after European airlines revealed that they hoped to unify bag dimensions.
And passengers have been left fuming after being forced to check in their hand luggage – only to find the overhead lockers empty anyway.
