»»United Airlines Introduces 15 $ Fee for Checking 1st Bag

United Airlines announced it will charge its passengers $15 for checking their first bag.

United’s move follows an identical one announced late May by American Airlines.

AA will start to charge its passengers beginning June 15, United says the $15 fee will apply on tickets booked on or after June 13, for travel beginning on or after August 18.

Similarly to AA, United will charge $15 passengers booking coach-class tickets, as passengers in first and business class or elite members of its frequent-flier program will be exempt from this fee.
