Weeks after United and Jet Blue increased their checked baggage fees, Delta Air Lines have now followed suit.

Italy's competition watchdog, Antittrust, is looking into the new hand luggage charges announced by Ryanair in August.

A baggage handler in Ibiza airport has been caught on camera going through a passenger’s luggage before stealing a speaker.

Airlines are constantly making the headlines these days, due to their ever-changing hand luggage policies. New weight restrictions, size limitations, and the introduction of charges for cabin baggage have turned a simple matter into a confusing one.

United has become the next major airline to increase its baggage fees in recent weeks. The changes will affect checked baggage fees specifically. It will now cost $30 to check a bag, which is an increase of $5.

JetBlue has announced that it is increasing the cost of checking a bag. The price hike will see the cost of one checked bag raised from $25 to $30. A second checked bag will go up from $35 to $40. Most notably, a third checked bag will increase from $100 to a massive $150.

Ryanair have again announced new baggage rules. This is the second change to their baggage allowance this year. The change means that the only item of hand luggage that can be brought as far as the gate is one small carry-on item. Currently, a larger 10 kg item can be brought as far as the gate, where it is checked into the hold free of charge.
