Underwater photographer Norbert Wu has posted a sample letter for Wetpixel members to send to United Airlines regarding their recent baggage policy change, which limits checked baggage to a single 50 lb piece for those who have purchased standard domestic economy tickets, or two bags for an additional $25 service fee.
Excerpt: A few years ago, United (and other airlines) changed their baggage policy from three bags at 70 lbs, to two bags at 70 lb, and then to two bags at 50 lb. We divers and photographers lost the ability to ship 210 lbs of gear to 100 lbs of gear just like that...now United is trying to squeeze us even more. I urge all of you to write United Airlines to protest this. If they get away with this; other airlines will follow suit.
Take a moment to send a letter to United Airlines to encourage them to rollback this new policy…
