Two weeks after Spirit Airlines announced it will charge fees of up to $45 for carryon luggage, American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, JetBlue Airways, United Airlines and US Airways pledged not to follow suit.

Spirit is not backing down. CEO Ben Baldanza told the Associated Press, "Our plan was never predicated on anyone matching us. The fact that other people are saying they won't has never changed our view that this is right."
