Northwest Hikes Fares Across the Board

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Northwest Airlines (NWAC.O) Thursday said it raised fares throughout its entire domestic system, by as much as $40 per round-trip, days after it foiled a similar increase attempted by other airlines to counter historically high fuel prices. Northwest said it raised unrestricted, or business, fares by $20 to $40 round-trip, and leisure fares by $10 to $20 round-trip. Other fares, such as senior fares, military fares, some Internet offers and consolidator fares, vary in their levels of increase.
