Air Transat says it will no longer allow carry-on bags for its low-fare customers on most flights in the latest example of discount carrier tactics entering the mainstream.

Starting Tuesday, passengers on the airline’s Eco Budget and Eco Promo fare class will have to check their luggage for a fee of between $35 and $50 on flights within North and South America.
