Airlines Raise Ticket Prices
Miami, Fla. -
Last week U.S. Airways raised its last minute walk up fare by $5-$10 dollars each way, and that was soon following by Continental, United, Delta and American. But at first no one was sure if it would stick unless Southwest raised fares also. Friday Southwest raised its fares to match the increase by the others which meant the increase is not likely to be rolled back as is often the case when one airlines raises fare but others don't.
