This morning AirTran Airways became the latest airline to introduce a fee to check a second bag, though the carrier plans to charge $10 compared with the $25 fee adopted by most legacy airlines. AirTran said it plans to assess the charge for travel beginning May 15, 1008.
 AirTran said the fee would not apply to business class passengers or holders of elite status in its frequent flyer program. "The airline will continue to allow passengers to check additional bags for a $50 fee per additional bag," the carrier said in a statement. "As with the previous policy, weight and size restrictions apply."
Continental Airlines earlier this week became the fifth legacy carrier to adopt the $25 charge for a second bag, while American Airlines remained the only holdout among its legacy peers.
