    Why is this something that needs to be mandatory by law? Some airlines voluntary do it, and there is usually more than one airline to choose from unless you’re flying to a really small airport. Recently I flew on an airline that charged $50 for carry-on luggage (I didn’t bring any because it was cheaper to buy new clothing when I arrived) and $5 for a glass of water. I deliberately chose this airline because it was the cheapest. I like having the “lowest price but we deliberately treat you like shit” option available if the alternative is paying even a little more and apparently lots of other people do too. I don’t want to lose it.
