Is It Really The End Of Cheap Flights?
A Boston Herald article jokes that “fees for using airplane restrooms may be around the corner”. However airlines raising their fees and cutting flights are no laughing matter. American Airlines is now charging $15 for each passangers first piece of luggage. For a family of 4 with 2 pieces of luggage each would be an extra $120 dollars! Other airlines such as United are planning to follow suit!
Taking the time to search for cheap flights will now be a priority for most people planning a flight.
If the cheaper airlines like Southwest and Delta don’t start charging these outrageous fees I don’t think it will be long until American Airlines goes out of business.

Seriously, I am soooooo glad I’m out of my retail biz. I usually needs to travel bi-monthly to other countries to get my beads and stuff, even the super cheap airline that I usually travel with which only charge S$200 to go from Singapore to China, Now charges S$500!!!
I don’t think the oil prices rise more than 100%?! Humph!
