Checking bags as non rev
I know for folks who have delta benefits checking the first (I believe it is) 2 bags are free, but does anyone know if overweight/odd shape/golf clubs are free too? Or are they subject to the fees? Cannot find any information anywhere. And if anyone wants to pipe in about the other mainlines policies in case anybody else is curious feel free to.
Thanks!
Thanks!

To answer the question, the overweight and odd shapes (special baggage), would be the same for non revs as it is for revenue passengers, however under "special baggage" Travel net list bikes, Antlers (random), surfboards, and Scuba gear. I have personally traveled many times with my scuba gear and never been charged, although they may be referring to a dive tank, which I don't have. I have also traveled once with a set of golf clubs, and was not charged, but that doesn't mean its status quo.

When the kiosk asks for bags, enter number. The next screen asks for "special bags" enter 0. Never had a problem that way. Got back from skiing last week with a double ski bag weighing in at 55 lbs and 6 feet long, no questions asked.
