United accepts one item of ski equipment per customer as checked baggage. Equipment must be securely encased in a suitable container. An item of ski equipment consists of:
Up to two pairs of snow skis and associated equipment in one bag and one ski boot bag [AMZ asins='B083176696,B074F945NM,B08512DLZK,B07X3MMRLX']
If the combined weight of the ski bag and boot bag is over 50 pounds (23 kg), applicable overweight charges apply. These could be in the $100-$200 range. The oversize fee for a ski bag will be waived.
A boot bag without an accompanied ski bag is considered one bag and normal baggage fees apply.
First or second checked bag service charges may apply.
Ski equipment in addition to the baggage allowance will be assessed at the current excess baggage charge for a single piece, whether or not it is presented as a single piece.
Ski and boot bags weighing more than 50 pounds (23 kg) that contain other items in addition to or in place of appropriate ski equipment will be subject to the applicable overweight checked baggage service charge.
United is not liable for damage to water ski or snow ski equipment.
Excess Valuation may not be purchased for water ski or snow ski equipment.
