United, Delta and American Start Charging Those Flying Alone More Than Those Flying With Someone.

United Airlines has quietly resumed charging single passengers more than those traveling in pairs or groups.

An investigation by Thrifty Traveler found that United, Delta and American were all charging solo fliers higher fares for the same route than those who booked two tickets or more together.
