Airline Checked Baggage Fees....Well Maybe It Wasn't Such A Great Idea After All

From the Wall Street Journal news that not only is United Airlines dropping a planned second check bag fee ($50.00) but is actually discounting the first checked bag fee in the next three months. United's change of heart comes in the wake of Delta Airline's announcement that they were going to impose a first checked bag fee just three days ago. Meanwhile Southwest Airlines announced that they not only are increasing capacity, but also increased the number of passengers flown in October. Guess which airline has shunned the increased fee mania prevalent in the other U.S. airlines?
