The government provided no airline bailouts. Many airlines filed for bankruptcy, negotiated down their debt with the banks, negotiated down their labor contracts, and then moved on. There was no government money involved.

Airlines are making more money now than ever before and what are they doing sticking right to the people that baled them out for so many years. Baggage fees are just like resort fees and if only one airline is not charging now it will only be a matter of time before that comes to a halt. It goes right back to the old saying "WHATEVER THE TRAFFIC WILL ALLLOW." Right now the airline that we avoid is American I thought USAIR was the worst well American is just a tad ahead of them and then merged. Things can only get worst....
