April 13, 2007 (Press Release) --
According to a report just issued by the U.S. Department of Transportation, the answer is “yes” and it is expected get worse before it gets better. It was reported that last year, for every 1,000 airline passengers, 6.50 bags were lost, stolen or damaged, compared with 6.06 bags in 2005; an increase of 7.3%.
Frequent travelers such as Julie Smerling, a consultant from Wisconsin who has racked-up over 350,000 frequent flyer miles with various airlines, said “Enough is enough”. She goes on to say “Whether my bags arrive an hour late or a day late, either way I have a problem because of my tight schedule, and now the airlines want to start charging for checked bags.”; referring to Spirit Airlines’ recent announcement, come June, to begin charging $5 each for one or two checked bags if the ticket was booked online and $10 each for passengers who do not book online.
