Do you have your booking info, or the ability to look it up? Just bought a ticket to CR on SWA and it was listed in the cost breakdown.

Yes it should be $29, looks like no in your case.

Orange posted a JetBlows breakdown. I don't see the corresponding line items for your ticket. I need to relook at mine!

EDIT: Nope, not on mine either. Which sucks because the airport counter will be closed by the time I arrive.

Yeah that's a good deal. I got $320 but out of DAL. I was thinking that was all-in. Still way cheaper than next best option.

Maybe a little savvy on their part to keep the published fare looking just a bit better than it really is. Free checked bags makes up for it and then some.
