These increased 1st and 2nd checked luggage fees ($35/$45 vs $30/$40) apply to all flights booked on/after January 2nd 2024.

You may check a boot bag and helmet separately from your snowboard, and it will all count as a single piece. However, if you have other clothing packed into the boot/helmet bag, it will count as an additional piece of regular luggage.

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.

Snowboards on Alaska Airlines
One piece of snowboard equipment is defined as 1 pair of skis with poles or 1 snowboard, plus 1 boot/helmet bag. If snowboard equipment is checked in a bag that also contains clothing or additional items, standard checked baggage fees will apply to the bag. Snowboard equipment may exceed 62 linear inches, but no more than 115 linear inches (length + height + width), without incurring an oversize fee.

Refer to our Alaska Airlines Checked Baggage page for checked piece, overweight and oversize charges.
