Thirsty? Pay up on US Airways

There's no such thing as a free beverage on US Airways which now charges for all beverages

When my husband and I flew United's to-be-discontinued Denver-London last March, I was surprised to be charged $5 for a split of very mediocre wine -- surprised because foreign international carriers continue to serve wine and beer gratis. Little did I know that this was the first of numerous fees that airlines would soon begin to impose on most passengers at check-in and now inflight.

Today, with no advance notice, US Airways started charging coach passengers $2 for bottled water and soft drinks and $1 for coffee and tea. Previously, it eliminated pretzel service.

This cheesy nickel-and-diming is disheartening, isn't it?
