On Southwest Airlines, it now costs (even) more to check a bag unless you qualify for a fare, credit card or airline status waiver.
However, starting April 24, any Southwest Airlines passenger flying between select cities on the U.S. West Coast will be able to check up to one case of wine for free.
The carrier has not yet shared which cities will be included in its new Sip and Ship program. But because the announcement was paired with a release celebrating new Southwest service from Santa Rosa, California, to San Diego, Las Vegas and Burbank, California, it's a good bet Charles M. Schulz Sonoma County Airport (STS) near Santa Rosa is on the list.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on The Points Guy Articles.
