I agree with you they have turned traveling into a nightmare.

One of my last commands in the Navy was a training command. We traveled a lot. We got smart after a while and started Fedexing our clothes in a box to the motel. No loss, nothing but an emergency uniform in a carry on, and we got out of the airport quicker.

No days with the baggage fees it seems to make even more sense. If I ever have to fly again in the US, no more checked baggage.
