This rule making could really affect spirit sales. Guess it all depends on what 'intrinsic' means...

ATW-"And DOT is conducting a separate rulemaking process to “explore” requiring airlines to disclose an “all-in-one price” on online travel sites, the department said. Fees to be potentially included in the disclosed price are baggage fees, seat assignment fees, and change and cancellation fees. “The idea here is the department is exploring what are the optional services that are so intrinsic to air services that they should be displayed along with the fare [online],” the DOT official said.

That last point is probably the one that had most airline executives taking a sharp intake in breath as it’s a clear stab at airline ancillary fees. Those “explorations” could easily turn into further re-regulation of the industry, effectively dictating how airlines sell their services and products and run their business."
