Just about every other day it seems another airline<\/a><\/strong> is unveiling a new fee for checked bags (not to mention drinks, snacks, etc.), and it’s getting a little hard to keep them all straight.<\/p>\n

Well, the fine folks at Orbitz <\/a><\/strong>have put together a simple, easy-to-read chart<\/strong> to help make it easier to figure out which airlines<\/a><\/strong> charge what, and when.<\/p>\n

The chart in our FAQ section<\/strong> will be updated regularly. But given how quickly these policies are changing, it’s a good idea to double-check at the airline’s Web site. And remember, these fees are not included in airfares<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n
