Wall Street is attacking Southwest trying to get them to charge bag fees. Do other airlines count boots bag or is it 50 for skis and 50 for boots.

I would not dare check boots if flight is not non stop or late to airport.

Air new zealand gives you a 1st check bag for 7$... can be anything as long as it's under 23kilos.. which is bomb as fuck for crossing oceans.


That said, Southwest is my fucking jam. I always fly them for domestic shit.

most airlines boot bag is included with ski bag, so one bag total for both. total combined weight less than 50 lbs typically
