United Airlines to Charge $25 for Second Bag

February 4, 2008 · Filed Under Travel · 1 Comment 

Well that does it, I won’t be flying United Airlines for personal travel anymore. If they are going to charge my $25 for a second bag, then they don’t deserve my business.

In an article in the Denver Post, United Airlines says that it costs more for them to handle a second bag so they need to charge for it. They need to charge $25 for a second bag? That is ridiculous.

Since they are going to be charging that much for a second bag, I don’t need to fly them. There are many different airlines that I can fly out of Denver International Airport that won’t charge me additional money for a second bag, that I can take them.

United, You just lost a customer that has flown over 200,000 miles on your airline. Get a clue and stop milking your consumers because you were negotiated bad contracts and can’t afford to compete in todays market even after getting concessions from your employees.

Personally I like Frontier Airlines. They are treating their consumers well and provide a lot of destinations for where I want to travel to. If you are looking for an alternative to United Airlines, fly on Frontier.

Wireless now free at Denver International Airport

Wireless now free at DIA : Local News : The Rocky Mountain News

For those of you who travel through Denver International Airport, the use of the wireless access is now free.

It used to cost $7.95 for access and to me that was a steep cost to pay for an hour or less of access.  I just didn’t use it.  I may consider using it now while I am waiting for my flight.
