Have the "bikes fly as checked luggage" policies that were just instituted recently on American, Delta, and United survived this year? My initial guess is that the airlines haven't gotten around to revoking those (yet) so they can gouge bicyclists again -- they're just hemorrhaging too much money to look at the little stuff.
