A budget airline, also known as a low-cost carrier (LCC), is an airline operated with a strong emphasis on minimizing operating costs. To offer cheaper fares, these airlines typically sacrifice traditional passenger luxuries and generate additional revenue by charging extra fees for services like carry-on baggage, seat selection, and in-flight refreshments.
