Baggage FAQs

Common Baggage Questions

How much does a checked bag cost?

Checked bag fees vary by airline and fare class. Major carriers typically charge $30–$40 for the first checked bag and $40–$50 for the second. Some premium fares include bags. We check your specific ticket so there are no airport surprises.

What happens if my bag is lost?

If your bag doesn't arrive, file a claim with the airline at the baggage office before leaving the airport. The airline is required to reimburse reasonable expenses for delayed bags and up to $3,800 for lost bags on domestic flights under DOT rules.

Can I add bags after booking?

Yes — most airlines let you add bags via their website or by calling. Prepaying for bags is often cheaper than paying at the airport. Call us and we'll help you understand your options.
