I'm packing my old fishpond roller duffel for my annual Idaho trip and I decided to check US Airways website for their baggage rules. Does anyone know if these crooks have recently changed their over-sized baggage rules?
Here is the language from their site:
Oversize checked bags
+ $175 each
Dimensions between 62 – 80 in/157 – 203 cm
-The dimensions we list are length + height + width.
So I went and measured the dimensions on the bag and sure enough, they total 65 inches. They've never measured my bag on previous trips but I'm concerned they will now. $175 is ridiculous.
I was considering shipping my gear bag in advance and this might make the decision a bit easier.
Any insight or thoughts?
