“…Some of the nation’s biggest airlines raised most domestic fares by an additional $20 roundtrip over the weekend, adding to the strain on consumers now paying an average of more than $4 a gallon for regular gas.”

The airlines are trying to survive the increasing fuel costs. Checked luggage regulations are changing and there are charges now on most carriers.

For the air traveler, unfortunately that will mean additional costs.
