News and notes from around the interweb:

- American increased its second checked bag fee for short haul if you don’t prepay online. I would almost never prepay a second checked bag. You’d need to be pretty sure you’re traveling with a second checked bag!
- “You WILL get reported. And you WILL probably lose your job.” Even if you plan to file a complaint about a customer service interaction, telling the person you want help from that’s your plan isn’t likely to get you the help you are looking for.
