I think delta offers a Credit card----and if you book ur trip with it--you get 1 extra free piece of luggage!!

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

A great website for air travel:

http://www.seatguru.com/

For baggage regulations by airline, pick your airline, then the baggage tab. Gives detailed info on baggage. I also find the site very useful on avoiding bad seats (things like which seats have limited legroom due to the entertainment control boxes, etc).
