“It’s not a question of money,” she said. “People are just fed up with being nickeled and dimed.”

This was one quote from the article. It can be argued, that people nickel and dime the airlines so they have to charge these fees. How is that - how can airlines be nickel and dimed. People's expectations. They expect low cost travel and have high expectations. Airlines are in business to make money.
