They pull you in with a $30 (or even sometimes $10-20) ticket. But you then have to pay for E V E R Y T H I N G else.
Carry on bag? $50+. (And anything bigger than a purse counts, that backpack is gonna cost ya) Checked luggage? $65. Select a seat? $25+ (per leg). Their seats are small so if you don’t pay you’ll probably end up in the middle, oh and they’re not keeping your party together. Not using mobile ticketing? $50. Free sodas and snacks? Lmao you wish.
I’ve never been able to price out one of these airlines and find it worth it compared to something like Southwest or even the more traditional airlines. I’m 6’4" so I definitely don’t want a middle seat in their cramped planes. By the time I add everything it’s the same price or more.
Maybe if I ever needed to get just myself and no luggage somewhere on a budget?
Things like being asked to pay £50 to print a ticket, or deliberately splitting people up when they don’t pay for designated seating is plain fucking obnoxious.
Fix the baggage charges at whatever the airports charge for it.
The really cheap budget lines do.

Legislation is needed for some of these things.
