End Baggage Fees or Risk Military Contracts
Tue, June 21, 2011 at 4:32 Support The Troops. Period.
A California congressman has introduced a resolution calling for airlines to waive all baggage fees for all U.S. troops deployed for service - and those commercial airlines that refuse to do so could have their contacts reevaluated. Rep. Jeff Denham, (R-CA), said he was troubled by reports that some military personnel returning from Afghanistan had been charged significant baggage fees. "I was outraged," he told Fox News Radio. "To get a bill as you're bringing back your guns and grenade launchers was unthinkable." Denham's resolution has bi-partisan support from 37 co-sponsors. It calls for all airlines to provide military personnel with "priority boarding, waivers of all baggage fees and priority seat preference when available."
