On September 9, 2008, your green backs and coins will no longer be good on
Southwest Airlines to purchase cocktails, beer, wine or their $3 energy drinks. Southwest
Airlines on this date will only except credit cards or debit cards. On August 5, 2008, Alaska Airlines went cashless.
Other airlines that have
gone cashless include: Spirit Airlines, Frontier Airlines, AirTran, Jetblue,
Virgin America, Midwest Airlines, Hawaiian Airlines and Sun Country.
American Airlines and Delta Airlines still accept
both cash and credit cards.
US Airways, Continental Airlines, United Airlines and Northwest airlines, for domestic
flights, only take cash.
US Airways is currently researching and testing onboard credit card machines.
However, it takes up to 12 weeks to receive these onboard credit card machines.
We do expect US Airways to go cashless the first quarter of 2009.
P.S. One final note for all you entrepreneur's! With all the new airline
fees, the next time you're flying and the passengers around you have cash only,
you could charge them a 10% "Passengers Who Have Money Only" service
fee! Just a thought!
