For us intrepid Disney travelers, getting there is half the battle. Gary from the View from the Wing blog is reporting that American Airlines are changing their fare classes to bundle certain items.
Current fares will be in the lowest class (Choice), while AA is adding two new classes (Choice Essential and Choice Plus), where they will bundle checked bags, waived change fee (currently at $150, which makes it like WN), and other things, sort of like Frontier does.
It is worth a read, as AA is a prevalent option for many of us to get to MCO and SNA/LAX. Plus, you'll simply be a more informed consumer

As Gary points out, this is interesting as it is a part of the actual fare, thus it is subject to federal tax imposed on airline fares but is also potentially available to Priceline, Travelocity, Expedia and other travel agents (where a la cart items are not).
