Jetstar said the changes follow customer and staff feedback, with chief executive Stephanie Tully saying that the policy would “make better use of overhead locker space, streamline boarding and help more flights depart on time”.Fees for overhead locker access will vary by route and demand, as reported by the BBC, starting at at A$25 for shorter domestic flights.The announcement has prompted strong reactions online, with critics accusing the airline of introducing another fee for services that should be included in the ticket price.In fullAustralian airline to charge fee for carry-on bags in overhead lockersMore bulletinsThank you for registeringPlease refresh the page or navigate to another page on the site to be automatically logged inPlease refresh your browser to be logged in
