According to a recent article on NBC51.com, Southwest Airlines just changed its baggage restrictions. It used to be you could check up to three bags. Now, you can check two bags for free.

That’s not going to be a major issue for too many people, since Southwest claims that only two percent of their passengers check a third bag. Plus, the excess baggage fee is only $25. Compare that to other airlines that sometimes charge as much as $200 in excess baggage fees!

Just make sure the bag isn’t over 100 pounds, because Southwest Airlines won’t accept anything that heavy. Fuel isn’t getting any cheaper these days.
