United Airlines is offering a Premier Baggage program, a subscription service allowing United passengers to pay an introductory price of $249 a year for the right to check two standard bags on any United flight, including United Express. The carrier's current domestic checked baggage fees are $15 to $20 for the first checked bag, and $25 to $30 for the second. The service also covers baggage fees for up to eight companions who are traveling under the same confirmation number as the subscriber. For more on United's subscription plan for checked baggage go to www.united.com.
Charges on your bill prior to your arrival. The hotel has time stamped when you arrived at the hotel so you couldn't possibly have breakfast, lunch and/or dinner if you didn't arrive until after 10:00 p.m.
Accepting a minibar key, even if you don't intend to use it, can lead to billing problems for you upon checkout. You could be held responsible for items that are removed. (The latest hotel gimmick -- minibars that register "sale" any time an item is moved, meaning that if you touch it, you buy it.)
It seems like a simple thing, but a lot of guests forget to do this. Keep all your receipts as it is backup for charges that could appear on your bill. Again, a charge for a cheeseburger could appear on your bill, however your receipt from the restaurant where you had dinner would show that you couldn't have been two places at once.
So-called "full-service" hotels like to charge you for every little thing these days. If you receive packages, be sure you know in advance that you will be charged whatever the service fee is to receive your package. Depending on the size, this could be very costly.
If you see an incorrect charge on your bill, notify a hotel employee immediately. You can usually resolve any billing errors at the front desk rather than waiting till you arrive home.
