Fee creep

Posted at 2:13 PM on May 21, 2008 by Bob Collins (0 Comments)

Today, "fee creep" hit air travelers when American Airlines announced that it will now charge $15 for the first checked bag, and $25 for the second.

Delta says it won't go along with the fee, but it is considering other fees.

What fees might that be? A charge for using the lav during a flight?
