    Continental Caves - Will Now Charge First Checked-Bag Fee

    Filed under: Airline Fees, Bags, Continental — Rick Seaney @ 11:24 am

    Continental is now joining most of the legacy carriers, in charging you to check a single bag: the fee will be $15. This will go into effect for tickets purchased for travel on or after Oct. 7.

    And then there was one: Delta Airlines is now the only legacy carrier without a first checked bag fee. But there’s a catch - Delta charges you a whopping $50 for a second checked-bag.

    Yes, there are other airlines out there that don’t charge you a dime to check a single bag - in fact, Southwest lets its customers check two bags for free - but, the “free” bag airlines are sadly dwindling.
