A netizen shared how their family was allegedly charged 30,480,000 Vietnamese Dong (or SGD$1824.88) to check-in 4 of his bags for an AirAsia flight.
They had apparently not pre-paid for the 4 luggage and had to pay the hefty fees to check in their bags for the flight.
The check in fee was apparently more than their flight tickets for two adults and two children, flying Hanoi-Kuala Lumpur-Jakarta.
One of the children in the video said “It’s like if a little kid put up a lemonade stand and charged a hundred dollars per lemonade.”
The netizen said: “Well lesson learned for sure. But charging someone that much money is robbery. It’s insane! No one deserves to pay that much money for luggage.”
Netizens’ comments
- That’s their whole business model. People are expected to know that when booking with budget airlines
- So am suppose to feel bad for y’all for not reading the baggage policy ….yeah that’s a NO
- Be prepared before you fly instead of blaming everyone else
- Policy clearly stated, u didnt plan it well dont blame the airlines.
- That seems to be more like poor planning and not reading terms and agreements.
