[Travelandtourism] Senate Bill Aims to Block Airline BaggageFees

[Mary Donahue]

Hello Cindy and everyone,

     That baggage fee mishap did not happen when I was flying to 
Phoenix; it happened two summers ago when I flew to Detroit for the 
national convention. Also, last summer, we paid for ground 
transportation before we even left for Orlando. If their could be more 
shuttle companies that would offer ground transportation upon arriving 
at destinations, ground travel would be wonderful. When my dad died two 
years ago, I thought I would have to have my brother pay for the baggage 
fee with his credit card, but luckily, my paycheck from work was 
deposited at midnight that same day. Somehow, word must have gotten 
around to Delta's personnel that I was flying to a funeral, and I didn't 
have to pay the baggage fee. I guess I'd rather have the All-Inclusive 
fare again than these high baggage fees. Yuck!
