From Times Staff and Wire Reports

Delta Air Lines Inc. will follow United Airlines in charging $25 for a second checked bag to help recoup surging fuel costs.

The fee will start in May, Chief Executive Richard Anderson said.

The charge follows similar moves by UAL Corp.’s United Airlines and US Airways Group Inc. last month as airlines grapple with fuel costs that have jumped 68% in the last year.
