[QUOTE="calling4life, post: 2318079, member: 48454"] It'd be nice to actually resolve all of this and have a good solid answer for people, but I'm a poor and don't fly anywhere, so I don't believe I'd be the best guy for this. It seems 2 or 3 is common as "for free" bags, but in general, if you're willing to pay, additional bags may be added. They don't tell us how many "non-free" bags Southwest will allow, and as we see, some airlines are a "depending" type answer, which means a person has no choice but to call regarding their specific flight. However, check this out for SouthWest. [B][SIZE=3]"Excess Baggage[/SIZE][/B] [SIZE=3]Each piece of baggage in excess of the free baggage allowance specified above that is not in excess of 62 inches (L+W+H) and 50 lbs. or less will be accepted for a charge of $75.00 per item one-way. Excess baggage which is also overweight or oversized will be charged excess baggage plus the applicable oversize or overweight charge."[/SIZE] Ok, still no number from them on how many "paid" bags a guy can have, not looking like they'll give one, but this is intersting. [SIZE=3]"[B]Weight and Size Allowance[/B] Southwest will accept the first two checked bags for free provided that the bags do not exceed 50 lbs and 62 inches (L+W+H). Overweight items from 51 to 100 pounds and oversized items in excess of 62 inches but not more than 80 inches will be accepted for a charge of [B]$75.00[/B] per item one-way. [B]Only one $75.00 charge applies if the piece is both oversized and overweight[/B], regardless of the weight as long as it does not exceed 100 lbs. Excess baggage which is also overweight or oversized will be charged excess baggage plus the applicable oversize or overweight charge."[/SIZE] So, $150 to them and you can actually have 100lbs and be oversized... again, we still don't know how many bags a person can take as "paid" extra bags, but 100lbs means you'll have 1/2 as many needed... [SIZE=5]Anyways, I found this:[/SIZE] [B]How Many Bags Can You Check?[/B][/ [B]American Airlines[/B] AA will allow you to check up to 10 bags on domestic flights. While your first checked bag will cost you $30 it becomes increasingly expensive as you add more bags. Bag 2 will cost $40. Bag 3 will cost $150. And bags 4-10 will cost $200 each. [D[B]elta Air Lines[/B][/ Delta also allow you to check up to 10 checked bags. Their pricing is the same as American Airlines. [[B]Alaska[/B][/ During peak periods Alaska limit the number of bags that can be checked per passenger. Check with the airline for limits on your flight. [[B]Allegiant[/B][ You can purchase up to 4 checked bags per passenger. [[B]JetBlue[/B] JetBlue charge $35 for the first checked bag and $45 for the second checked bag. You may be able to bring more checked suitcases but they charge $150. Contact JetBlue for further details. [[B]Southwest[/B][ Southwest are the clear winners in the luggage stakes. Their size limits for carry-on luggage are the most generous. And they allow 2 checked bags for free. [[B]Spirit[/B] If there is space available you can purchase up to five checked bags when flying with Spirit. [[B]United Airlines[/B] The number of checked bags that you can bring on a United flight depends on the route. [/QUOTE]
