2003 AIRLINE BOARD FEE POLICY
The above table outlines many of the airline's current,
posted, policies regarding checking surfboards onto
flights. Policies are subject to change, and info may
vary slightly depending on destination and time of year.
Charges are "each way" unless other wise noted. "Per
item" generally refers to a boardbag/ boardcase but
in some cases may be charged per board. |
SMILE
Most airlines will not even charge you if you have only
two items. A good attitude, a pleasant smile and the
words "please" and "thank you" go
a long way whether you're in Los Angeles or Costa Rica.
