Air Canada CEO to address Canadian government hearing on carry-on baggage fees
Dec 11, 2024 7:35 AM

Dec 11 (Reuters) - The CEO of Air Canada ( ACDVF ) will

address a Canadian government committee panel on Friday about

carry-on baggage fees, according to a meeting notice, after the

country's largest carrier recently announced such charges for

basic economy fares.

Lawmakers in both Canada and the United States have

criticized airlines in recent weeks for levying additional fees

on luggage and seat assignments, following an outpouring of

anger by passengers on social media.
