Skipping the Surcharges
Now that several other carriers have followed American Airlines' lead in charging a fee for checked baggage (as reported in the New York Times today), it seems time to repeat the suggestion we made back in March: why pay to lug your luggage around when shipping it directly to your destination is becoming an increasingly cost-effective strategy? Other benefits: you'll avoid the petty pilferage that seems rife among airport baggage handlers, as well as the danger of arriving and finding your personal belongings have been lost, damaged or delayed since you can make sure everything has arrived safely before you even walk out your front door.
