I expect to see a fee for advance booking of seats online.
I believe they will charge a surcharge if your flight is not full. Also, a charge to call in and ask a question over the phone. A charge to ring your flight attendant call button, and a charge if you wish to make a seat assignment more than 24 hours in advance.
The next fee will be for good customer service. You want them to listen, respond and be nice? That'll cost extra.
There is already a fee for window or aisle sets on Spirit Airlines
Southwest already charges for preferred boarding. The first 20 boarding positions cost extra.
There are already fees for Window/Aisle seats, preferred boarding, and check-in.

A fee for lowering your seat back.
A fee for using the overhead storage bin.
