The extra charge for checking baggage over 10 kg when traveling by air came into effect this Tuesday (20/6). The value was established by the National Aviation Agency at the end of 2016 along with other new rules. From now on, passengers will also not be able to be charged for tickets canceled up to 24 hours after the date of purchase and at least seven days before boarding. iStockphoto Rules should have come into force on March 14, but the validity was changed to this Tuesday (20/6) due to several actions against the new rules. These rules should have come into force on March 14, but due to a legal battle the deadline for them to come into force was changed to this Tuesday.
In February , judge Alcides Saldanha Lima, of the 10th Buy Phone Number List Federal Court in Ceará, outright denied the state Procon's request against the changes promoted in the rules that govern the relationship between airlines and passengers, the majority of which were criticized by experts in Consumer Law. In the action, Procon Ceará claimed that the changes leave consumers at a disadvantage in relation to airlines. He also said that the changes violate provisions of the Civil Code (article 740) and the Consumer Protection Code (article 39). According to the judge, the new rules do not violate consumer rights or give excessive advantages to the supplier. This is because a business activity, even those regulated by public authorities, must be profitable, otherwise the continuity of its services may be unfeasible, as well as its existence.
However, on March 13 — one day before the new rules came into force — judge José Henrique Prescendo, of the 22nd Federal Civil Court of São Paulo, temporarily suspended the extra charge . The following day , the 4th Federal Court of Brasília, as it also analyzed a case related to the topic, determined that actions filed against Anac rules must be forwarded to the 10th Federal Court of Ceará, which was the first to analyze the case. At the 10th Federal Court in Ceará, judge Alcides Saldanha Lima reestablished the rule, stating that interfering on this point is legislating through the Judiciary. He further argued that allowing companies to charge for shipments is not, in itself, an act that violates consumer rights. His analysis was focused on the business aspects of the issue.
