I'm hoping someone can just confirm how I'm reading Delta checked baggage fees. The website says:
When traveling within the United States, U.S. Virgin Islands, or Puerto Rico, customers who purchased a ticket on or after November 6, 2008, will be charged $15 for the first checked bag and $25 for the second checked bag (each way, for round trip).
For tickets purchased on or after July 16, 2009 for travel on or after August 4, 2009 there will be a $5 surcharge on each of the first two checked bags when checking in via ticket counter, kiosk, or curbside. There is no surcharge for bags prepaid during online check-in at delta.com.
So since I purchased my tickets in April 2009 for travel after August 4, 2009 I still only have to pay $15 for the first bag right?
ETA: I just re-read Delta's page and realize that by prepaying during check in I won't be charged the $5 surcharge regardless of purchase date or travel day. Sorry - I should have seen that BEFORE posting
