Avelo Baggage Fees (2026)

Avelo checked and carry-on bag fees, when to buy Optional Services, and size notes, with links to Avelo’s official baggage pages.

Quick answer

On Avelo, a personal item is free on every reservation. A full-size carry-on is PAID: Avelo’s published range for new reservations is $52 to $75 per person, each way. Checked bags are standard up to 62 linear inches and 50 lb, with fees from $47 to $75 on Optional Services (new reservations); prepay when you first book for the best price. Published overweight and oversize add-ons are fixed: $100 extra for overweight, $100 extra for oversize, $200 extra for both. Check current prices on aveloair.com Optional Services; we show Avelo’s published ranges rather than prices for each city pair.

Based on Avelo’s Optional Services, checked bags help, and Contract of Carriage (section 10 on checked baggage and section 11 on excess baggage; in effect from January 21, 2026). The exact price at each step (initial reservation, online check-in, airport) needs Avelo’s interactive Optional Services tool; check it for your itinerary. Size limits and the published overweight and oversize fees below are fixed; check live carry-on and checked-bag base prices when you book or in Manage Travel.

Published overweight and oversize fees

Add-on Published fee
Overweight: over 50 and up to 70 lb +$100 (additional per item)
Oversize: over 62 and up to 80 linear in +$100 (additional per item)
Overweight and oversize +$200 (both charges apply together)

Keep the variable bag prices (carry-on $52 to $75, checked $47 to $75 on new reservations) separate from these published overweight and oversize add-ons. Bags over 70 lb or over 80 in are not accepted (except the assistive device and discretionary exceptions noted above).

Free and paid

  • Always free: one personal item within 17 × 13 × 9 in under the seat.
  • Base reservation: carry-on and checked bags are paid Optional Services (low-cost, à la carte pricing).
  • Active-duty military (ID): 1 carry-on and up to 2 checked bags free; embargo: some flights limit this to 1 checked bag, so check your itinerary.
  • Avelo PLUS ($99 a year; first year $59 listed): member fare perks; a bag fee waiver is not confirmed on Optional Services, so check the terms and conditions before counting on one.
  • Optional Services lists à la carte bag add-ons; check the current product names there.

For size detail on the free under-seat bag and the paid overhead bag, use personal item and carry-on size.

Gotchas

  1. Buying at the airport or later often costs more than the ranges for new reservations ($47 to $75 checked, $52 to $75 carry-on), so buy early.
  2. Overweight and oversize fees stack to $200 extra (official); budget for both if the bag is over the weight and the linear limit.
  3. Bags over 70 lb or over 80 in not accepted (except assistive devices, and sports equipment or instruments at Avelo’s discretion).
  4. Up to 10 bags per customer, with a fee per bag; don’t assume unlimited free bags.
  5. The military allowance of 2 free checked bags can be cut to 1 on some flights; check your itinerary.
  6. Exact check-in and airport prices beyond the published ranges need Avelo’s live tool; check there rather than assuming a full price table.
  7. Carry-on is paid, so count it in your total, not just checked bags.

Avoid fees

  • Add bags online at initial reservation (lowest tier of the published ranges).
  • Stay within 50 lb and 62 linear inches to avoid overweight and oversize fees ($100 extra, or $200 extra for both).
  • Pack to personal-item only (17 × 13 × 9) when possible.
  • Active-duty military: use the free carry-on and checked allowance with ID.
  • Check Optional Services or Manage Travel for your city pair before you travel.
