US Airways has joined United Airlines in charging passengers $25 to check a second bag each way.
US Airways said the new fee is effective for tickets booked on or after Feb. 26 for travel beginning May 5. US Airways said the new fee applies to flights within the United States, and to and from Canada, Latin America, the Caribbean and Europe, which is in contrast to United's policy, which does not apply to itineraries that include international flights, except those to Canada.
Like United, US Airways is making some passengers immune to the fee, including preferred frequent flier members, passengers in first class and elite Star Alliance members. US Airways also said it would exempt active military and unaccompanied children. United earlier this month enacted a similar baggage charge for travel beginning May 5.
