For us, driving is still MUCH MUCH cheaper than driving! Especially if we take our car that gets 36mpg city!!!! It gets even more doing highway exclusively so the Compact Car it is for November!

Well if this new trend shows a shift away from the airlines that are doing the extra charge and profit increase to the airlines that do not implement the charge, that could still mean the rebels, like SW, may choose not to go along with the trend.

We travel quite a bit- and almost never check our bags. We each have a large carry on. If it doesn't fit, it doesn't go. Seriously- do you REALLY need all of that stuff??

A family member has a medical condition which increases the amount of baggage. I know circumstances that make it impossible to travel light.

But three sets of clothes everyday? Make your travels a little easier on yourself! I doubt these extra charges will go away, so think twice before packing all of those extra shoes.

We're also trying Owner's Locker starting in May... Hopefully we'll be flying with backpacks only for our other trips this year.

I found myself in Hawaii this past December with one of my bags a bit overweight...

I was so happy that my "Flying Colonel" status still meant something...

Luckily for me, neither Hawaiian nor Air New Zealand is being harsh on the luggage rule. Of course, for what they charge, they shouldn't...
