Topic Reading-Vol.762-5/13/2014

Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
Frontier Airlines now charging for carry-on bags
Many fliers, either novice or frequent, are conscious of the fare. These days, one can easily compare various fares, book a seat, purchase the ticket and even check-in online. But just comparing fares doesn’t seem to be enough to be economically successful to fly. You need to be able to know and plan what to carry for the trip, how much room to stretch your legs and what to drink for your comfort during the flight because these choices could make your cheapest fare to the highest.
A US low cost carrier, or L.C.C., headquartered in Denver, Colorado is following a successful business model that made a once-bankrupted Florida’s airline by charging everything but the body of the passenger himself or herself. Sodas and check-in bags are already the norm nowadays for such low cost carriers but a charge to use the overhead bin isn’t that popular practice yet. Extra leg room and preferred seat section are also on the price list.
Enjoy reading and learning how smart you need to be to take advantage of low cost carriers.
