Faulty Luggage Scales Found in New York City Airports

Quite a number of airline baggage scales at two major New York City airports have been found faulty. At least 4% of scales at LaGuardia Airport and 14% at John F. Kennedy Airport were incorrect for a total of 102 faulty scales, with an overestimation of at least one pound or even more. The New York Department of Consumer Affairs took matters in to their own hands due to increase in complaints of airline baggage fees. Currently, all scales by 10 at John F. Kennedy have been corrected.
