Here we list, airline by airline, fees for checked bags on major US airlines. These fees are for domestic economy class travel (which in some cases includes Puerto Rico, the US Virgin Islands, and Canada) only and may be higher on international flights.
There are all kinds of exceptions to these fees, especially for certain classes of frequent flyers and military personnel. These fees are cumulative and are double for round-trip travel. They are subject to change and were accurate to the best of our knowledge as of Apr 22, 2010.
If you’re a heavy packer, you’ll want to fly with Airtran, Alaska, Frontier and Southwest, even if there’s a cheaper fare on another ailrine.
