Actually when I lived in Austria, if you wanted to have extra ketchup at McDonald's you had to pay for it...You also had to pay 14 cents per plastic bag at the grocery store. Is that a better analogy for you?

And if you don't like my European analogy and argue that that is foreign...How about if you get crazy bread from Little Caesers, the sauce is an extra 99 cents.

The whole 1st and 2nd checked bag fee has been out there in the news everywhere, not just on the airlines' websites. Inform yourself. Ever heard of a credit card? Just put her checked bag fee on your plastic...Did you just drop your step daughter off and high tail it out of there?

How much do you pay to put gas in your tank? Yes yes the airlines should just up the fares...blah blah blah...They did! The checked bag fee is extra revenue.
