Worst airline fees

Mine is excessive excess baggage fees. Paying more for extra baggage is fine, putting underlying note to allow yourself to refuse if overloaded/overbooked also no issues, but paying $20 plus per kg, when the going rate for freight in the hold is $2 a kg is a crime.

I don't mind paying $4-5 per kg, $10 is a push, $20 plus you have to be out to rob me.

My understanding is that Jetstar now charges a flat $50 fee if your carry-on is over 7kg. (Do Tiger do something similar?) Talk about highway robbery - it's a pretty low limit to begin with.
