The Transport Ministry proposed to tighten some rules for the carriage of luggage and hand luggage. The new minimum weight: 5 kilograms. List of items that can be carried without weighing in hand luggage is reduced. From it removed the outer clothing, umbrella, laptop, mobile phone, camera and video camera.

According to the executive director of the Urals Tourism Association Mikhail Maltsev, today the aviation industry is in the stage of reformation. In this regard, Russian tourists are waiting for a series of various innovations. Some of them may adversely affect passengers.

"Reform in the aviation industry is more concerned not with technical nuances - weight and volume of luggage - and the results for which all this is done. At the moment, the issue of charter transportation and the formation of internal flights. Of course, a number of proposed new rules may lead to a rise in the cost of tickets. But passengers should accept the fact that all this is done to improve the service. True, every innovation should be followed by an explanation of the reason for the increase in the price of transportation, "says Mikhail Maltsev.

The expert also noted that loukosting or discount, when a person to a basic tariff can buy himself the necessary services - luggage, food - will develop in the airline market. At the same time, participants of this market do not have any sense to compete with each other, therefore, it is more likely that the number of abuses for winding up the cost of admissions will be minimal.
