    Why does American Airlines charge for the first bag?

    Question #96074. Asked by dj168. (May 26 08 7:09 PM)


    neelie_447

    		They're charging for the first bag as a way to make up for the ever-increasing cost of fuel.

    "American Airlines will start charging $15 for the first checked bag, cut domestic flights and lay off workers as it grapples with record-high fuel prices."
