Air Canada to charge for checked bags to U.S.

September 2, 2011

Starting in October, Air Canada will charge a checked bag fee for flights between Canada and the U.S.

Coach passengers will pay $25 for the first bag and $35 for subsequent bags. (Business/First/Elite fliers get free checked bags.)

One free checked bag will still be the rule for flights within Canada.

Aren’t you glad we mostly carry-on?
