Alaska Airlines accepts your kitesurfing equipment as a piece of regular luggage, and will waive the oversize/overweight fees - you will be charged only the standard checked luggage fee of $35 if it is your 1st bag, or $45 if it is your 2nd bag. If your kiteboard equipment is in addition to 2 suitcases, the excess baggage rate of $150 per item will apply to your kitesurfing gear.

These increased 1st and 2nd checked luggage fees ($35/$45 vs $30/$40) apply to all flights booked on/after January 2nd 2024. [AMZ asins='B01BN1W5G6,B01465RK8E,B00NIYJF6U,B003EBV7XG']

The higher $150 3rd / Extra Bag fee applies on all Alaska Airlines flights purchased on/after June 30 2023. The previous extra bag fee of $100 still applies to flights purchased before June 30 2023.
