E-TRAVEL TIPS AND INFORMATION By Bob Rosenthal, April, 2011. Dear Travel Friend Every month, Travel Travel will email you up-to-date travel industry information which should not only be interesting but could affect your future travel arrangements and decisions. In the past weeks, airline fees have been in the news. Airline fees, when added to the base price of your airline ticket could make a huge difference in the final total cost of your flights. AIRLINE FEES Begining in 2008, airlines have been charging consumers ancillary fees made up of preferred seat selection, ticket changes, pillows & blankets, meals & beverages and other a'la carte services, which have resulted in $23 billion in profits for the industry in 2010. This year is likely to be a year of change for ancillary revenue for airlines, as consumer rights advocates call for more transparency and the US Department of Transportation considers new airline fare disclosure requirements. Travel Travel has formatted airline consumer fees into individual airline catogories, to make it easier for our clients and consumers to check how these charges will affect fare pricing comparisons for each airline. SOUTHWEST AIRLINES AMERICAN AIRLINES DELTA AIRLINES UNITED AIRLINES CONTINENTAL AIRLINES US AIRWAYS   AIR CANADA FRONTIER AIRLINES AIRTRAN AIRLINES  MIDWEST AIRLINES ALLEGIANT AIRLINES JETBLUE AIRLINES ALASKA AIRLINES VIRGIN AMERICA AIRLINES HAWAIIAN AIRLINES SPIRIT AIRLINES This information was updated on 3.18.11 and details additional fees that might be added to base airline ticket prices for some of the most popular airlines. The list does not include every airline and may not always be 100% accurate, as airline fees change constantly and can vary by specific flight, seat assignment, and frequent flier status. We strongly suggest you verify this information on your airline's websites before ticket purchase.
