Maybe the airlines should look at trying to drop a little of the 347,000 lbs and improve efficiency? Materials/ Flotation devices over land?

Maybe they should just take the average weight of all flight's luggage and disperse the amount INTO the cost of the ticket. When a plane is half full, they are still ok because there is less weight and better ecconmy on the flight.

Bottom line: Tell me what it costs to fly my flight and be done with it!
