United to Charge Non-Frequent Fliers $25 to Check SECOND Suitcase.

 

 

United is announcing a new checked bag policy for customers who purchase nonrefundable domestic economy tickets.  Customers purchasing nonrefundable domestic economy tickets that do not have status in Mileage Plus or Star Alliance may check one bag for free and a second bag for a $25 service fee.  Customers who have attained Premier status or higher in Mileage Plus or who have Silver status and above with a Star Alliance partner, are exempt from this policy change.  The new policy applies to tickets purchased on or after February 4, 2008, for travel on or after May 5, 2008. Please view the Domestic Baggage Questions for additional details on this policy.

 

All customers traveling on United may check at least one free bag. The number of free bags allowed per customer will vary according to the customer's Mileage Plus status and/or the type of ticket purchased.
