Just something to keep in mind when comparing ticket prices (I know GB doesn't want to take his bike on the plane but...) these prices are one-way prices.
United: 1st checked bag $25, bike $100 (no length)
Airtran: 1st checked bag $15, bike $79 (no length)
Frontier: 1st checked bag $20, bike $50 (99.9 inches)
US Air: 1st checked bag $25, bike $100 (no length)
Jet Blue: 1st checked bag free, bike $50 (no length)
Midwest: 1st checked bag $20, bike $50 (99.9lbs and 109 linear inches)
Southwest: 1st 2 checked bags free, bike $50 (less than 100lbs, 80 inches l+w+h)
BTW, there is a weight limit on a bike. Most carriers it is 99lbs (some 50lbs) so we will need to keep GB off of chainlove for a while.

Just received email from Midwest. Their bike policy is "under 99.9lbs and 109 linear inches"
