Skycaps are not normally paid by the airlines and are dependent on tips. To help ensure your luggage arrives with you I recommend tipping. I generally do $2 a bag. If you are trying to sneak a bag in that is over the weight limit, tip more and have it out an showing!

The skycap is your friend if you treat him right. I tip at least $1-2 a bag. If they are heavy I tip even more. If I have to get the suitcases out of trunk then they don't get as much.

They don't work for the airlines and they do depend on tips.
