The escape is carefully planned.
Delta and American Express have teamed up to offer a second complimentary checked bag on domestic U.S. flights for cardmembers who pay an annual fee. This means that most Delta Amex cards, except the no-annual-fee Delta SkyMiles Blue American Express Card, now carry this benefit. The cards have also undergone an aesthetic change with new designs, and elevated welcome bonus offers are available for new cardmembers. With this new benefit, cardmembers can save up to $100 in bag fees one-way on U.S. domestic flights when checking two bags.
And, of course, the real benefit is not the free bag, but the freedom to pack more stuff.
