Say goodbye to a free checked bag on JetBlue Airways Corp. if you buy the cheapest ticket. The airline is set to introduce a new fare scale as soon as Tuesday and missing will be its signature, complimentary luggage policy.
The change will leave Southwest Airlines Co. as the only major U.S. carrier that doesn’t charge for an initial checked suitcase in coach. JetBlue has said it plans to unveil three-tiered Fare Options pricing this quarter, which ends June 30 but has declined to say if the company will meet a self-imposed deadline.
