US Airways has bumped up its fees for heavy luggage by $40.  Passengers with bags that weigh between 51 and 70 pounds will now be slapped with an additional $90 fee over the normal $25 first-checked-bag fee. Go over 70 pounds, and the fee is $175.

The Associated Press reports that the fees for checking a first or second bag  on US Airways ... $25 and $35 repectively will not be changing.
