Northwest Joins Delta And US Airways In Adding Surcharge To Redeem Frequent Flyer Mileage.

The latest new fee being imposed by airlines struggling to cope with rising fuel costs is a surcharge to redeem frequent flier miles for airline tickets.

Northwest became the latest carrier to announce the new fee, following the lead of Delta and US Airways who had previously announced such changes to their programs.

On Northwest, frequent flyer award tickets issued after September 15, 2008, will be hit with a charge of $25 for domestic travel, $50 for transatlantic travel and $100 for transpacific travel.

US Airways new policy affects frequent flyer tickets issued after August 6, 2008. They will impose a $25 fee for domestic and Canada travel, $35 for tickets to Mexico and the Caribbean, and $50 for tickets to Hawaii and international destinations outside North America.

Delta's new fee kicks in for frequent flyer tickets booked August 15, 2008 or later. They will assess a fee of $25 for domestic and Canada travel and $50 for transatlantic and transpacific travel.
