        Anyone else remember when airlines said baggage fees were needed because of soaring oil prices? Welp.

        Rode Westjet from Canada day after Labor Day. No room in overheads for last 12 people's carry-on because everyone was boarding with two roll-on bags, one a carry-on, one declared as "personal item". All because of this stupid "extra charge" policy.

        This is such a stealing. They steadly decreased the quality of their services and increased the costs of traveling. Government should regulate this industry asap to protect US, the people!

        At this point, it will be easier to travel and cheaper to just mail large Priority USPS boxes of your clothes to the hotel you're staying at.

        They should have to refund the money when they damage/destroy the checked bag. Checked a brand new bag, when I received it it had a hole in it and looked like it had been run over. Tread Mark's across it. Previous trip they ripped front pocket and broke zipper on another new bag.

        THIS IS WHY I LOVE THE TRAIN! Yeah, I might be late, but me and my huge backpack chill together and no TSA. It’s so relaxing.
