USAir

I have to wonder if whoever is running USAir is trying to bankrupt the company. We just go an update on their fee policies:

  • Changing a ticket is $150.
  • If you change a ticket to a higher price, you have to pay the difference. If you change it a lower price, you forfeit the difference.
  • It’s $35 to get a ticket at the counter.
  • It’s now $15 to check a bag, plus $5 if you don’t check in advance.
  • Meanwhile, the most successful airline in the country charges no ticket change fee and checks the first two bags free (although we got tripped up by one being too big).

    Whatever.
