Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I add a third checked bag on Southwest
A: Since the first two bags are free, a third bag incurs a fee (typically $75). We can guide you on the best way to handle this during your travel preparation.
Q: What is the weight limit for Southwest checked bags?
A: Checked bags must be 50 lbs or less. Overweight bags incur a charge. Call us to review your itinerary and properly prepare your baggage arrangements.
