More Airlines raising baggage fees

This should not surprise anyone who travels, as I noted last week during the first round of baggage fee changes that the rest would soon follow....they have.

Effective for tickets issued on or after Jan. 18, 2010 for travel on or after Feb.1, 2010, US Airways has matched Continental, Delta and United and raised its online baggage check-in fees by $3 to $23 for the first bag and by $2 to $32 for the second bag. For airport check-in, the fees remain the same at $25 for the first bag and $35 for the second bag.

Effective for American Airlines (AA) tickets issued on or after Feb. 1, 2010, AA will increase its domestic checked baggage fees by $5 for both online and airport check-in. The first checked bag will be $25 and the second checked bag will be $35.
