Bag fees will end when the passengers say no. Truth is, the $$$ passengers are not paying for bag fees. It's now a perk for their commitment to the airline, plus earning miles to redeem on international travel.
The real question is what happens to business travelers who enjoyed low ticket prices and been able to get business class seats out of Atlanta and soon will no longer be able to do that. They'll have to log in 24 hours prior or at midnight or something to get a letter assignment that if they show up and stand in line earlier then they can maybe get the seat they used to get when stuck in coach but not that business class seat.
Ah.... shoe, shall we?
