It is getting worse and worse.

It's tough...cause this clearly makes customers annoyed, but with the rising costs of fuel/oil...it's either that or just a fare increase. You know the rest of 'em aren't far behind. Travel, by any method that uses fuel/oil, certainly is requiring a second thought. It's too bad really that the gov has let this dependence drag on so long...

Thanks for the heads up!

I'd rather just have an increase in ticket prices. Don't insult me by charging me for a checked bag.
