Thanks Fabila. Same with Jet Blue. Price way up. Thankfully hubby has short legs and JB regular seats have good room so no need to upgrade. We've never flown Delta before so I had no idea but sounds like it's not worth much unless a checked bag costs more than that $149?

I'm usually in charge of our travel arrangements but our next trip is a European River Cruise that includes airfare so all the booking was done by an agent, no questions asked of us. I will have to ask them about a charge for luggage because it was not mentioned. Package is for economy seating but I thought maybe we might (could?) upgrade but now won't bother.

We fly Delta direct BOS- AMS but return is Swiss air from Zurich to AMS then back on Delta AMS-BOS. We were already told no seat assignment on the Swiss until boarding pass issued. It will be a learning experience.
