The costs keep rising for passengers booking flights: Delta Air Lines just announced it will be the latest U.S. airline to hike checked bag fees.
Going forward, most Delta flyers will pay $45 instead of $35 for their first bag. That's a jump of $10, or roughly 28%.
The change will apply to tickets booked from Wednesday, April 8, on.
