American Airlines to charge $15 for 1st checked bag

May 22, 2008 · Filed Under Travel news 

As if airlines were not already raising costs and adding fees fast enough, there is a new one to note.

Beginning on June 15, 2008 American Airlines will charge passengers $15 for the FIRST checked bag. Yes, you read that correctly. If you are checking any luggage with American Airlines it is gonna cost you starting June 15th.

What will they charge us for next? Seatbelts? Restroom privileges?
