Be cautious...I had scheduled a dive group that went to Roatan, Honduras. It was a great trip. We went down on June 14th and returned on June 21st. I called American Airlines numerous times to make sure our contract for airfare was in good order, no changes were going to occur and they reassured me that everything was fine. We had no problems going down to Roatan, but coming back was a different story.
Besides the airport being a complete zoo, American changed their baggage changes coming from Central America and never bothered to put the information on the internet until the day. On April 8th if you bought tickets on American you were charged the new baggage fees.
When I made my contract with American Airlines, they gave me charges for baggage, which is what I passed along to my customers. But that changed on April 8th. If you purchased your tickets before you got the 1st bag free, 2nd bag $25.
If purchased after April 8th, its $25 for 1st and $40 for 2nd, regardless if it was a sport bag or not.
It cost each person $75 to get their personal bag and their dive bag home from Roatan, which some of our group got their dive bags routed to the wrong city.
For those that put trips together, it is useless to argue with American, make contracts or whatever else.
