Delta Air Lines has joined its peers in raising fees for checked bags.

The airline said the fee for the first and second checked bag went up by $5 on most domestic and short-haul international flights.

It now costs $35 for the first checked bag and $45 for the second.

It is Delta’s first checked bag fee hike in over five years.

The fee continues to be waived for Delta SkyMiles Medallion members and first-class fliers.

In just the past few weeks, American Airlines, United, JetBlue and Alaska Airlines have all hiked checked bag fees.
