Another airline fee hike: Frontier to charge $100 for antlers

Bankrupt Frontier Airlines said Friday it will increase the charge for taking antlers on its planes to $100 from $75.

Colorado-based Frontier is the latest airline to announce new fees in an attempt to counter the cost of record oil prices, which have roughly doubled in the past year.

"During hunting season, people do bring antlers back in cargo" said a spokeswoman for Frontier. "If you look at some of the other airlines, they also have an actual antlers fee, so it does happen," she added.
