Fri Sep 14, 18 1:13 pm Southwest Air w Kite Large Bags - Your Experience |
|
|
I am flying to Baja on Southwest Air for the first time. Usually I fly Alaska Air.
I have a large 190cm Dakine Club Wagon gear that will hold all my kite gear.
Has anyone had experience - good or bad - with Southwest and very oversized luggage? |

They should be charging $75.
The items listed below will be accepted as Checked Baggage for a $75 each way charge.
Bicycles (defined as nonmotorized and having a single seat) properly packed in a bicycle box or hardsided case larger than 62 inches in total dimensions will be accepted as Checked Baggage. Pedals and handlebars must be removed and packaged in protective materials so as not to be damaged by or cause damage to other Baggage. Bicycles packaged in cardboard or soft sided cases will be transported as limited release items.
Javelins in a single bag, regardless of the number of javelins encased together, will be accepted.
Kayak (other than a sea kayak). Paddle(s) must be secured.
Life Raft Cartridges associated with a self-inflating life raft must be removed and are not allowed on Southwest.
Surfboard/kiteboard, keels and fins must be removed and placed in carryon or checked baggage.

I almost exclusively fly southwest. I always get charged a $75 fee in the states when I check my board bag. I’ve never been charged in Mexico for the same bag fee.

Thanks Nevo. I appreciate the feedback. I am not so worried about the fee as I am about the jumbo 190cm Dakine bag. But it sounds like there is no issue.
Counting the days until I am back in the warm La Ventana waters... |

Yeah, I think my board bag is 182cm (6') and no-one has ever mentioned the size in any way whatsoever.

I flew with the jumbo Dakine Club Wagon 190cm bag, weighing in at 80 pounds. Southwest charged me the $75 but happily accepted it without comment flying PDX to SJD. Now all my gear is in La Ventana for the season ![Very Happy](images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif) |

I love Southwest for flying with my gear. $75 if over-size. $75 if overweight. $75 if both, not $150. I think $75 is reasonable. I use the Ion 2/4 bag which is huge....and its always over $75 when I go with twin tip, foil board, 3 kites, etc. I've never had an issue with SW, and sometimes they've been generous and not even charged me. More airlines should learn from SW. |
