Sunwing has updated its luggage allowance and policies for 2024, but fees for standard checked luggage remain unchanged. The following fees and allowances are for both Sunwing Vacation Packages and Flight-Only purchases in 2024.
If flying on Sunwing with a Vacation Package, you are still entitled to 1 free checked bag of 23 kg / 50 lbs. If purchasing only a Sunwing Flight (not part a Sunwing Vacation Package), you will not have any free checked baggage allowance, and will be charged a fee for all checked bags. Sunwing Flight-Only baggage fees are detailed below. [AMZ asins='B00LB7REFK,B082K8ZNQ1,B07ZWLQF9T,B00NW62PCA']
TIP: If purchasing a Sunwing Flight (flight-only, not vacation package), we recommend booking as early as possible and try to snag one of the limited "Elite Plus" exit-row seats for $50 each way - this is the same price as pre-purchasing your 1st checked bag, but includes not only 1x Checked Bag (reg. $50 fee), but also 1x Carry-On suitcase (reg. $25 fee), priority check-in, priority boarding, extra leg-room, and priority security lane, all for the same $50 price tag as paying to check-in just the one regular suitcase.

Additional Info
Be sure to note that these fees apply One-Way, so you will have to pay each fee twice for a round-trip flight.
As the loading of heavy baggage is a safety concern for baggage handlers, the maximum weight of any one piece of your checked baggage cannot exceed 32kg.
Dimensions of checked baggage, (Length+Width+Height), must not exceed 62 inches (158 cm). Any oversized pieces may be rejected at check-in and those who wish to transport such pieces can contact a cargo service provider.
Customers may pre-purchase baggage allowance by calling the Sales Centre at 1-877-SUNWING or by accessing My Booking up to 48 hours prior to departure.
