Delta picks up one of Northwest’s annoying fees

Recently, Delta and Northwest’s merger was cleared by the stockholders and signs went up around airports all over the country with Delta and Northwest terminals. In Memphis, a Northwest hub, signs went up minutes after the announcement.

Now, Delta is announcing they will be imposing the $15 first checked bag fee, as well as the $25 second checked bag fee. These fees came directly from the Northwest Airlines playbook.

The fees will begin taking place starting Dec. 5th. Customers who already purchased tickets will not be charged for the first checked bag, but will be charged for the second ($50). Those flying first or business class or members of SkyMiles Medallion or WorldPerks Elite will not be charged for the first 3 bags checked (up to 70 lbs each).
