SpiceJet launches for-fee service for passengers with heavy cabin baggage

New Delhi: Low-cost carrier SpiceJet today announced a new optional for-fee add-on service, "Carry More Onboard", for passengers with heavy cabin baggage.

A press release from the airline said passengers can carry bags weighing upto 12 kg on board, for a fee of Rs 250 per kg for each kg above 7 kg.

"This product is an option for those passengers who have heavier than 7kg cabin baggage, and is especially designed for those travelers who have no check-in luggage and do not want to be forced to check in their cabin baggage and then wait for it at baggage claim," it said.

While the airline continues to allow a check-in bag upto 15kg for free (except for those who purchase the new optional “Hand Baggage Only” fares), the new product also benefits customers who are carrying fragile items, medicines, heavy documents and so on, and prefer to keep these kinds of items in the cabin with them.
