American Airlines: Leader
US Airways: Follwer
United Airlines: Follower
Spirit Airlines: Follower

American Airlines is leading the industry in everything including making travel for people like me and you darn near impossible. Its not totally their fault the economy is in shambles and they are following suit.

As predicted many US domestic airlines are adjustng fees as American makes changes. US Airways, United Airlines and Spirit Airlines have followed AA in their new rule to charge passengers $15 for the first piece of checked luggage. Aside from Southwest Airlines all domestic airlines that operate in the U.S. began or will soon begin this month charging $25 for the second piece of checked luggage.

Fly Southwest….I’m sticking with that!
