United Airlines in May will become the first large carrier to charge travelers $50 to check a second piece of luggage on domestic round-trips. The airline said soaring fuel costs forced it to add the fee and noted that just 25% of its customers check a second bag. It expects the fee to generate about $100 million in additional revenue.

The U.S. State Department has issued a Travel Alert for Kenya, warning U.S. citizens to avoid travel to Kisumu, Naivasha and Nakuru and to defer travel to other parts of the country. The threat stems from disputed elections in the African nation.
