For legitimately separable things—-like a carry-on bag or assigned seats—-I think unbundling is a good thing. Sure it feels a bit annoying to see the price go up and up, but sometimes you don’t need those things and the search engines should be able to get you an apples to apples price with a bit of elbow grease. It’s the non-optional fees—- resort, regulatory compliance, or living wage—-that are truly pernicious.
