I mean, that’s basically what airlines did when they started charging $20 for checked baggage so they could get the price Expedia shows to be as low as possible.
Base price needs to be with a cabin bag + personal item. Then they can make a discount if one decides not to take the cabin bag but at least the comparison includes it from the start
It’s a bad deal that only policy could really fix at this point.
If you’re the only store with real menu prices then customers just get price shocked at what they’re actually going to be paying when they can go next door to another restaurant that doesn’t tell you the full price up front. Customers would be upset at a mid $18 burger, but at fine with a mid $16 burger + $2 tip.
Imo, the problems stem from the forced rat race of no one having enough money excluding the rich. Prices being high wouldn’t matter if people got paid more, but cause we’re not getting paid more, the companies that target the general population just make everything into cheap knockoff crap to still turn the same or better profit margins.
That’s essentially what they’re doing, but with a surcharge rather than just raising their menu because we love adding on tax and fees here in the US
That’s also a surefire way to piss everyone off! It’s hilarious to see the extent that restaurants will go to keep the menu price low.

I think you mean cabin bag
Fortunately the EU is revoking that

As an American I’ve never heard the term cabin bag before. But I’m sure they’ll find a way to charge me extra for it.

Policy created the problem.
