How is Ohio affected as Southwest Airlines joins other carriers in charging checked bags? Who doesn't have to pay? Here's how much it will cost.
With Southwest's long-standing free baggage policy now in flux, it’s time to rethink how we budget for our upcoming flights.
According to the airline, they'll now charge $35 for the first checked bag and $45 for the second checked bag. Traveler Gina Screen said, "With no more free bags, I'm not going to be looking at Southwest first; I mean, I'm going to be looking at every other airline."
