Right, so everyone should be allowed to bring on a coffin size suitcase with at least 100kg with of weight now? They plan that out in advance so unless you are going to inform the airline well in advance that you’re bringing a corpse’s weight of luggage on board, my point still stands.

“They bring bodies on board so I can bring a 100kg suicase” is a level of logic only seen when a Karen screams at some poor customer service person because her plane was cancelled due to a hurricane as if there’s a secret network of hurricane proof planes that are only unlocked if you act like a removed.

I mean the right don’t want transgender people to exist, let alone run non-competatively

Because they wanna fleece you for every penny you have, but the point still stands that for the most part it’s to protect baggage handlers. If you wanna take a dead body on board you have to take that up with the airline.

Not quite.

You know how X-Ray Techs go into a little room to protect themselves while you get your x-ray? That’s because while you are only getting one (1) x-ray, maybe two (2), they have to do tens or hundreds a day, and the raditation levels from that can cause them harm, while you getting one or two x-rays is fine.

Now replace x-ray with your overweight bag filled with cheap Scotch you got from the Duty Free at EDI and “Radiation” with knee and back injuries from doing that over and over again for eight hours a day, and you can see why both the Unions and the Companies would object to unlimited baggage weight for passengers as workers will be out of work from injuries and companies will have to pay them compensation and find someone to replace them.

If individual passenger weight was enough to prevent take off, then very few people would be able to fly.

If you are there handling heavy items all day, you’re gonna get injured. That doesn’t just fuck up the workers (meaning they can’t go to work) but it costs the company money too (because they need to replace those handlers).

Think of it like this, you know how the X-Ray tech has to go into a little shielded room while you are getting X-Rayed, but you are still exposed to the full force of the X-Ray? That’s not because they care about their safety more than yours, it’s because one x-ray is fine (what your getting), but the x-ray tech does tens, maybe hundreds a day, and that builds up to radiation poisoning.

Now replace “X-Ray Radiation” with Repetitive Strain and back injuries" and “X-Ray” with the Suitcase full of Drugs your smuggling into the Netherlands, and you get the idea.

Because they can mark the luggage has heavyweight so the handlers can use equipment to load the items.

Time for me to say this again:

THE WEIGHT LIMIT ON LUGGAGE IS TO PROTECT BAGGAGE HANDLERS FROM INJURY. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH TAKE OFF OR LANDING WEIGHT.

At another 10 minutes? Yes. Yes it is, especially when you need to catch a train.

I feel safer on that one than the one at Queensferry. Behold.

Every other step? Rotten. Parts of the Handrail? Broken. The steps? Uneven. The Alternative? A winding road that takes you out into the country or a walk into the village.

Fun fact, there is a stairway like this but so much more run down near me. It’s known locally as the Jacob’s Ladder, it’s under the Forth Rail Bridge and it’s actually terrifying but it’s the quickest way between the station and the Pier.

Oh course not. They stop people spying on you.

This isn’t lazy. It’s on purpose. Erase history the Trump admin doesn’t like.
