Recently I heard a commentary on the radio about airline fees. With airlines ailing from increased fuel costs, many have spiked certain fees (such as fees for pets, unaccompanied minors) or instituted a new policy for purchasing inflight food soon to include the dry, stale pretzels. Now American Airlines is spurring the way for charging per luggage. Just this week we heard that US Airways will remove all inflight entertainment.
