Show Notes
Major U.S. airlines, including JetBlue, United, American, Delta, and even Southwest, are increasing checked bag fees due to soaring jet fuel prices, a result of the U.S.-Iran conflict. The hikes, adding up to ten dollars per bag, will affect domestic and short routes, with elites, military personnel, and specific credit card holders exempt. Despite the pain, demand for flights remains high, with airline bosses expecting the changes to add billions to their annual costs.
