Pretty sad how the airline industry has resorted to gouging it's own customers.
All you frequent fliers, take note. If you have a bonus-level frequent flier card (silver, gold, platinum, whatever), check what benefits you might have for airline baggage. I was coming back home to Europe via United in Chicago earlier this year on a business trip. When I went to check-in they wanted to hit me for $15+$25 for my 2 normal sized, underweight bags. I showed them my silver eurobonus card (SAS, Lufthansa, etc., partner of United) and they waived the charges. Turns out it's policy. Of course it only works if you are flying on the airline that issued the card or if it's a codeshare flight by a partner.
