I think United's late to the game.<BR/><BR/>Betts, that's interesting to know! I rarely ship anything by FedEx, except documents, so I wouldn't have said if $149 was really outrageous, but it seemed so.<BR/><BR/>Claire, I suspect even the well-heeled will go to FedEx directly. United doesn't seem to offer any more convenience. You still have to print the labels and arrange for pickup or drop-off on your own.Kitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16673726727402668186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30450596.post-84354949093333875442008-11-08T12:06:00.000-07:002008-11-08T12:06:00.000-07:00You NEVER get a good deal from United these days. ...You NEVER get a good deal from United these days. I have actually written articles about baggage delivery services, includ FedEx.

I just shipped one of those co-sleepers (it's a fold up baby bed that attaches to an adult bed) to the Midwest for $35. United is just looking for a way to make money.Bettshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02266517579549649484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30450596.post-65891957572056947812008-11-08T08:38:00.000-07:002008-11-08T08:38:00.000-07:00I've heard of people who have started fed ex-ing (...I've heard of people who have started fed ex-ing (or ups-ing) their luggage rather than paying the handling fees.
