On a serious note.... currently WestJet allows two free bags, however starting in January 2011 WestJet will allow one free bag and a second bag for $20.00. In addition WestJet will lower the third bag fee from $75.00 to $50.00, so for three bags it will be $5.00 less than it is currently (I could not imagine travelling with 3 bags... 1 bag is a nightmare sometimes). In addition to the checked baggage allowance, each guest is allowed to travel with 2 carry-on items.

I am guessing that there will be an increase in the amount of carry-on aboard our flights.

I recently flew on CO from YYC to IAH and could not believe the amount of carry-on and the size of some of the bags!
