Southwest Hikes Baggage Fees, Airlines Grapple with Oil Prices
Description
Southwest Airlines raises checked baggage fees amidst global fuel crisis, following the end of its bags fly free policy. Other U.S. airlines, including Delta, JetBlue, and United, have also increased fees due to soaring jet fuel prices caused by the Iran war. Fuel prices have more than doubled, with oil dipping but quickly rising again after Iran closed the Strait of Hormuz. Expect more costs at the airport and be aware of international surcharges.
