Screw charging for a second checked bag, American Airlines has just announced it will start charging $15.00 for the first checked bag!
American is also going to cut back its fleet, along with Delta and United.
The reason? Oil prices.
I know I may be wrong on this and many people may disagree with me, but I lay the blame on our current and worst President ever. Oil companies are recording record profits, but the general public is getting screwed royally.
So now it's going to cost more money to fly and everyone is going to try and carry on their luggage. It'll be like flying in an overcrowded utility closet.
