Just heard that Delta's 2nd luggage bag charge is going up from $25 to $50 starting, i think, in september.
it pertains to anything larger as well...surf boards, golf bags etc.
This is why Southwest will prosper.
Just this last quarter, we had a corporate directive to take Southwest whenever possible. Delta used to be our pick.
why would anyone want to fly on an airline where there is a very good chance they'll be stuck on an uncomfortable RJ, and an even better chance they'll hear the words “flight 1234 is currently in an oversold situation, we are seeking volunteers with flexible travel plans who would like to take another, equally oversold, flight in the morning”.
UAL was the southwest 20 years ago.... where's UAL now? things will change....

It just amazes me that companies do this. I put this in the same category as "fuel surcharges" at flight schools. Just increase the price of the product/service instead of adding fees.

In what way? Southwest has been a different kind of airline from the start....
Southwest has a better frequent flyer program anyway.

737's arent very comfy either.... last three or four times I road on them.... I rather be on an CRJ7 anyday.

Are you crazy? I love commuting on SWA, they have the best leg room of any major (other than first class). I'll take a 737 over an RJ any day of the week, any seat. I had to fly Expressjet from YYZ to IAH, pure misery. It should be illegal to fly an RJ more than 2 hours.

If they're so worried about the weight they should set up a scale and charge the fat people more for thier ticket.
