Fencers - Don’t Fly Airtran unless you have $50 to burn
Fencing.Net user ivlobane reported:
On my way from Atlanta however, I was quite surprised to have my bag measured and told that it’s over-size and therefore I need to pay $50. Understandable, if it weren’t for a golf bag that was not charged right before me! Fencing, it turns out is not on their list of “accepted sports equipment”.
So, golf equipment gets a free ride, but a fencing bag gets a $50 charge? Vote w/your dollars and don’t fly AirTrain, or better yet, email them (custserv@airtran.com) and let them know they’re losing out on a valuable set of customers.
What do you get when you have the Nike design team create a brand new shoe for your sport?How about something that is 20% lighter than other shoes on the market, engineered for extreme durability, and created with new design elements that make the “mainstream” shoe design teams go “hey, I want to put that in our shoe”
