No, it was a checked bag that was barely over the limit. There’s a penalty fee and the bag is tagged “heavy” so the handlers are aware. Some high-mile fliers get an extra weight fee exemption. There’s another limit for max weight.

You can see out the window of the plane the way handlers drag and drop even much lighter bags and crates, even when tagged “fragile”, how much the weight matters and how much they give a s. I have video. The jars survived. Double-boxing ftw.
