I'll double check about that tomorrow, but I very much doubt it.

They are being very creative in finding stuff they can do for people just
to make what they were making before the fees took place. Instead of
helping them outside /where the fee would be charged/ they take the passengers to the kiosks and check them in that way. Then walk the bags up to the counter. Sometimes they may have some issues with tickets and they come to us and we get them done quickly. We're trying to help them out
the best we can. We feel horrible for them.
