Try this to avoid checked baggage charges, take your bags with you to the gate, like it's going with you as carry-on luggage. When they tell you that you have too many bags to carry on, ask for then to "gate check" them. They don't have the ability to charge fees at the gate.

But they do when you go to claim,as I had to do this at Phoenix Sky Harbour,Southwest Florida International,O'Hare & Midway airports recently due to my misjudgement.
Each time my extra bags were held back from the others after landing and I was approached by an attendant asking me to follow them to a customer checkout counter.
I had to pay them then & there or no bags for me.
They are a savy bunch.

Think getting on a plane sucks now? Foreign ownership is steamrolling its way through Congress and will become reality once the proper wheels are sufficiently greased. You think American CEOs are penny-squeezers? Wait 'til the Chinese take over a few airlines. I'll put my cars up for sale here first.

Save Today, Fly Tomorrow
Pre-Purchase Your Checked Bags Today & Save
Dear CHRISTOPHER,

You still have time to save 50%! It's not too late to pre-purchase your checked bags for your upcoming Spirit Airlines flight. Beat the rush and save time and money in the process. If you purchase your checked bags now, you can still do so for $5 each way. But hurry, effective February 20, 2008, the new checked bag rates will be $10 when purchased online and $20 when purchased at the airport.


woops, looks like I screwed up again


I'll just wear seven outfits on top of each other and carry on the rest !

I absolutely HATE flying and have an extreme fear of it.. I think it is a control issue.. I would much rather drive somewhere even though it is usually safer flying, so they say..

I'll do it if I have to, but won't like it.....
