I honestly think they should just get rid of the baggage charges but it's easy revenue for the airlines so they won't

TSA taking over would make the airlines job easier for sure, but as I understand the current process, they are supposed to be helping monitor how many bags are being carried thru the checkpoint, but don't. Really, what difference does it make to them? Why should they care?
As far as bag fees creating revenue, you are absolutely right. But do you know how much revenue? Just wondering, because if you did, you may think twice before you say they should get rid of the fees. (Since your profit sharing check depends solely on whether or not DL makes a profit!
