Golf Bag Fees and Policies - Flying With a Golf Bag
Most airlines accept a golf bag as part of the regular baggage allowance; however, this does not apply to all airlines. In most cases, the weight of a golf bag is limited to 23 kg / 50 lb, and many airlines waive oversize baggage fees.
You can find specific policies for golf bags for over 300 airlines below on this page. [AMZ asins='B00CUEFDSS,B001P9IA0C,B09BZ2HB4T,B002LZA8PY']
We always recommend packing your golf clubs into a rigid travel case, or at least using a product such as the BagBoy BackBone or the CaddyDaddy North Pole to protect your clubs from being crushed during transit.
