If you purchase a ticket now however and fly Continental, you will be subject to both the first and second bag fees.

Thanks for the response. Is that still printed somewhere because the printout I have and continental.com both say that for tickets purchased after Sept 6, 2008 the fees apply. It's just that my printout and continental.com have different exemptions.
