$15 to check one bag. Each. Way. So pay an extra $30 to have some clean clothes. Oh, but carry-on luggage is still free. Great. That means how many more people fumbling unsuitable carry-on luggage through the plane, delaying take-offs and whacking fellow passengers in the head. And here's another consideration: some things you'd like to take on a trip are already consigned to your checked baggage - things like toiletries over 2 oz. and, last time I checked, tweezers and nail clippers. Yeah, brilliant.
At least no one could complain about lost baggage...
