With recent news that Spirit Airlines will charge for carry-on baggage, I thought it may be interesting to see just what kind of fees some airlines charge their passengers.
Here are some of the fees I’ve come across. Do you know which airlines use them?
- Administration fee
- Credit card payment fee
- Debit card payment fee
- Offline booking fee
- Award ticketing fee
- Quick ticketing fee
- Paper ticket fee
- Change fee
- Cancellation fee
- Name change fee
- Service fee
- Preferred seating / exit row fee
- Seat selection fee
- Online check-in fee
- EarlyBird check-in fee
- Airport check-in fee
- Checked baggage fees
- Excess baggage fees
- Priority boarding fee
- Fuel surcharge
- Buy on board food & beverage
- Travel assistance fee
Undoubtedly there are fees which I’ve missed. Please let us know in the comments and I’ll add them to the list.

The fee for the seatback AVOD is on Delta Airlines as well. Without fee you can watch live TV and play the Trivia game and that’s about it.

Tiger Airways charging e-booking fee. It is not the same as debit/credit card fee.
