No more baggage fees for Continental’s cardmembers
Continental Airlines Inc. is waiving the first checked bag fee for its Chase credit and debit cardmembers.
On Oct. 7 the Houston airline began charging $15 each way for some economy-class passengers checking a bag.
Customers traveling with the primary cardmember are also be eligible for the waived fees if they are listed in the same reservation and check in at the same time.
Presidental Plus cardmembers can check up to two bags free, according to Continental (NYSE: CAL) one hour cash loan.
There are more than one million customers carrying some form of the airline’s credit or debit card, said Mark Bergsrud, senior vice president of marketing programs and distribution, in a statement.
