How much is a checked bag on Allegiant?

Published in Allegiant Baggage Costs 2 mins read

A checked bag on Allegiant typically costs anywhere from $18 to $50 per bag. The exact price can vary based on factors such as the specific route, the time of booking (e.g., during booking, online after booking, or at the airport), and whether it's your first or second checked bag.

Allegiant's baggage fees are dynamic, meaning they can change depending on your flight details. It's generally more economical to purchase your checked baggage allowance when you initially book your flight online.

Allegiant Baggage Fees Overview

Here's a breakdown of common baggage fees you might encounter with Allegiant:

Baggage Category Fee Max Weight
First checked bag $18-$50 50 lbs
Second checked bag $18-$50 50 lbs

Important Considerations for Allegiant Checked Bags

  • Weight Limit: Each checked bag has a maximum weight limit of 50 pounds (22.68 kg). Bags exceeding this limit will incur additional overweight fees.
  • Size Limit: While not explicitly stated in the fee table, checked bags also have maximum linear dimensions (length + width + height) to be aware of, which are typically around 80 inches.
  • Pre-purchase for Savings: Purchasing your checked bag allowance online during the booking process or through Allegiant's website before your flight is almost always cheaper than waiting to pay at the airport counter.
  • Dynamic Pricing: Be aware that the $18-$50 range is broad because Allegiant utilizes a dynamic pricing model for baggage, similar to how flight prices can fluctuate.
