Baggage must be checked-in 30 minutes before departure for flights within the US (at some airports it's 45 minutes) and one hour for international flights. Passengers can also check-in at a self-service kiosk (available at some airports) or at the ticket counter.

On domestic flights, Classic Plus and Classic flyers may check-in two pieces of luggage free and pay $50 for a third or subsequent pieces of luggage. Economy flyers are charged $20 to check the first bag, $30 for the second and $50 for third and subsequent pieces.
