How Much Stuff Can I Check In - The Airline... Jul 28th 2013, 11:01, by airtravel.guide@about.com Airlines have decreased luggage allowances a lot over the years. I've worked for the same airline for over a dozen years and seen the permitted free allowance simply drop. Those least affected - executive/business/first class airfares, or top tier frequent flyer members who have long enjoyed a bit more flexibility with luggage. Now you may not be able to take a surfboard, or a larger stroller, where you once could. Unless otherwise noted, wheelchairs are checked in as free baggage, and do NOT count toward the free luggage allowance. Some airlines allow strollers for free. Most airlines, regardless of excess baggage fees that you may be willing to pay, will not accept bags that weigh more than 100lbs as checked luggage. So what is an air traveler to do? It is a case of trying to keep up with the tightening luggage policies of the airlines. The following policies are for passengers traveling in economy class, and are not top tier frequent flyer members: American Airlines American Airlines Checked-In Luggage and Excess Luggage Fees and Allowances American Airlines Checked-in Strollers, Car Seats, Mobility Devices and Sports Equipment Fees and Allowances United Airlines United Airlines Checked-In Luggage and Excess Luggage Fees and Allowances United Airlines Checked-in Strollers, Car Seats, Mobility Devices and Sports Equipment Fees and Allowances Delta Airlines Delta Airlines Checked-In Luggage and Excess Luggage Fees and Allowances Delta Airlines Checked-in Strollers, Car Seats, Mobility Devices and Sports Equipment Fees and Allowances Continental Airlines Continental Airlines Checked-In Luggage and Excess Luggage Fees and Allowances Continental Airlines Checked-in Strollers, Car Seats, Mobility Devices and Sports Equipment Fees and Allowances US Airways US Airways Checked-In Luggage and Excess Luggage Fees and Allowances US Airways Checked-in Strollers, Car Seats, Mobility Devices and Sports Equipment Fees and Allowances Alaska Airlines Alaska Airlines Checked-In Luggage and Excess Luggage Fees and Allowances Alaska Airlines Checked-in Strollers, Car Seats, Mobility Devices and Sports Equipment Fees and Allowances Northwest Airlines Northwest Airlines has merged with Delta Airlines and shares the same policies regarding luggage.
