The cost of airplane tickets continues to rise, but the latest trend is to charge more for regular economy seats.

The regular-priced economy seats may only be available at the back of the plane.
Low-cost carriers started the trend of "extra fees" but now the big airlines are joining in.
So what should you do if you choose not to pay the extra charge?
