Recently, many airlines have instituted a policy of charging travelers for checked baggage. Those charges are payable directly to the airline at the time of check-in, and, as a result, are not included in the price of your Funjet Vacations getaway. Below, you will find a list of airlines and what they are charging, as of the latest update.
