Hidden Fees & Critical Warnings

Delta charges $35 for the first checked bag on SAV routes, not included in base fares—most sites omit this. I discovered this when my $142 DL ticket cost $177 total after adding a bag. American (AA) adds a $42 "service fee" for SAV-JFK bookings made via phone, absent from online pricing. Always check the final total before paying.
