Fewer flights and no relief for add-on fees in sight
Airlines are again under assault, this time from a stale, stagnant economy with fewer high-ticket business travelers in the air and rising fuel prices -- again. American, Continental, Delta and U.S. Airways have announced capacity cuts, route restructuring and/or layoffs. Attractive designed to lure leisure travelers in this cash-strapped uncertain time simply do not bring in the revenue that full-fare business travelers provide. Even Southwest is feeling the pinch. United isn't shaving capacity -- at least not right now -- but anything can happen. But with airlines still cash-strapped and chronically worried, don't expect carriers that charge for checked bags, food or drink to change those policies, and be prepared for hefty change fees too.
