»»Experts Say AA’s First Bag Fee Could Create Problems at Security Checks
As fliers have expressed surprise following American Airlines‘ move to add a $15 fee for checking a first bag, industry experts warn the new fee is likely to create havoc in airports .
MarketWatch.com suggests travelers will try to beat the system by squeezing all their belongings into carried-on bags, with non-seasoned fliers, who might not know they can’t bring aboard water bottles or other banned items.
That could hold up the lines at security checks.
With airlines continuously looking for new revenue sources in the effort to handle skyrocketing fuel costs, experts also predict rival legacy carriers are likely will follow AA’s move soon.
