I doubt it could be done, its laughable at this point.

I mean, we all know this fee is BS, so I would love to hear the explanation behind it. Besides squeezing every sent out of you consumer, what would the legal standing be behind such fees; what the heck does it actually "pay" for in there eyes.
It's called "we want to make a profit" and "Americans want cheap airfare"

There are ways to avoid the fees... buy the full fare tickets!

I realize that the concept of an airline making a profit is alien on here, we think they should pay us to fly LOL!
