US Airways matches United
April 25, 2013 on 12:14 pm | In Airline Fees | No CommentsUS Airways has announced it will match United Airlines’ increase of $50 on ticket change fees. I find this unsurprising since US Airways tends to be very opportunistic with fees. In fact, I would regard US Airways as the leader in developing fees and arguably one of the most successful airlines in implementing them.
Will this mean that American Airlines will adopt such a thing? No, not necessarily. Once the two airlines blend together, the analysis will ultimately be based on what’s best given the combined customers the new airline has.
