| Baggage Allowances & Additional Fees |
The number of checked and carry-on bags can vary depending on the Air Carrier and type of Aircraft that is being used. A general rule of thumb is that we allow one-30 lb checked bag and one-14 lb carry-on (combined total of 44 lbs) for US Domestic Flights and two 40 lb check bags and one-14 lb carry-on (combined total weight of 94 lbs) at no charge.
Passengers checking in luggage must be at check-in counter no later than one hour before flight departure.
Additional checked bags, overweight bags and specialty items, if accepted are charged additional fees. These fees are charged and collected at Check-In time for your flight and cannot be pre-paid.

From time to time, Air Carriers may pass along Fuel Surcharges to defer the rising cost of fuel. PublicCharters.com reserves the right to pass these surcharges on to the passengers. We do all possible when working with our Air Carriers to ensure an accurate and realistic fuel base is used to calculate our published fares in an effort to keep fuel surcharges at a minimum. Please refer to our Tour Operator-Participant Agreement under Major Changes for more information.
