Airlines have consistently pushed for people to stick to HBO, though, especially the LCCs. And you can easily pay £40 each way for a checked bag on one of these. And in the US, of course, charging for checked bags is the norm. Coupled with not being able to be sure your luggage is going to arrive with you, or having to wait a ridiculous amount of time to get it (90 minutes on our last trip that involved checked bags), there’s little incentive for people to put it in the hold!
