What Does Frontier Airlines Charge for Bags?

Here’s a concise overview of what Frontier Airlines charges for baggage:


  • A personal item (e.g., a small backpack or purse) is included free with your fare.
  • A carry-on bag (size up to 10″D × 16″W × 24″H, max weight 35lb) must be purchased and the fee varies by route and timing (e.g., booking early vs at the airport).
  • A checked bag (size limit 62 linear inches, typically up to 40-50lb) also has variable fees. Checked baggage fees differ based on when you buy and the route taken.
  • Overweight (41-50lb, 51-100lb) and oversized bags (63-110 linear inches) incur additional charges (for example $75–$100 for overweight).

Frontier Airlines has a separate charge for bags. They allow one personal item, such as a small backpack, for free, but carry-on bags and checked bags will have to be paid for. Prices are different depending on when you add the bag (online is cheaper than at the airport), the route, and the size/weight of the bag, so it is generally better to pay in advance to avoid steep charges.
 
Frontier airline permits one personal item which is free. Carry-on and checked bags are an additional charge, typically ranging from $40 to $110-plus, based on the route, size, weight and the time at which you do this.
 
Frontier charges for both carry-ons and checked bags. The price depends on when you pay (at booking is cheapest), your route, and your fare. Checked bag fees are usually higher than carry-ons, and if you pay at the gate it gets expensive fast. Look for bundle deals sometimes that’s cheaper if you want multiple extras.
 
Frontier Airlines charges carry-on and checked baggage but you pay an additional amount that depends on when you take flight and your destination. Frontier adheres to an ultra-low-cost and pay-for-extras business model, so the likelihood of the bags being cheaper when purchased during a booking and more expensive at the airport is high.
 
Frontier Airlines fee on carry-on as well as on checked bags, prices are different depending on the purchase time and the purchase type. The lowest bag charges are charged at the time of booking and increase at the airport, because Frontier is a low-cost, pay-as-you-go airline.
 
Frontier allows one free personal item; standard carry-on and checked bags cost extra. Fees vary by route and when you pay, e.g., carry-on about ~$30–$80+ and checked bags ~$30–$90+ each way. Overweight/oversize bags incur extra charges.
 
Frontier keeps fares cheap but charges for bags, your personal item is free, carry-ons usually cost extra, and checked bags get pricier the closer you book or fly, so it’s best to add them early to save money.
 
Frontier charges extra for bags since most fares don’t include checked or carry-on luggage. A personal item is free. Carry-on fees vary (about $30–$99+) depending on when you pay. Checked bags typically cost roughly $50–$100+ each, plus extra for overweight/oversized luggage. Buy early online to save.
