Sun Country’s base fare includes a seat and a personal item. Nothing else. Carry-on and checked bags are add-ons you buy separately, which is the core of Sun Country baggage rules.

That is confirmed by Sun Country’s own published material. The exact dimensions are a different story, and we will be straight with you about why.

Why Sun Country baggage rules have no size table here

Sun Country’s baggage pages sit behind bot protection that blocks automated reading. Every route we tried returned a security page instead of the policy.

We publish figures only when we have read them off the carrier’s own page. We have not been able to do that here, so we are not publishing numbers.

Plenty of sites will give you a confident table for this airline. We cannot confirm where those figures came from or when they were last checked.

That is the whole point of how we verify. A gap we admit is more useful than a number we guessed.

What we can confirm

The base fare covers a seat and one personal item that fits under the seat in front of you.

Carry-on bags and checked bags are purchased on top of that fare. Sun Country states that it posts size and weight limits online.

This is the standard unbundled model. It works the same way at Frontier and Allegiant, where only the personal item is guaranteed.

How to check Sun Country baggage rules before you fly

Open your booking and look at what the fare actually includes. Unbundled carriers list bags as line items rather than allowances.

Buy any bag you need at booking. On every carrier in this category the price rises at check-in and rises again at the airport.

If you can pack to a personal item, do. That is the fare you actually bought, and it is where the low headline price holds up.

What to expect from an unbundled carrier

Sun Country baggage rules follow a pattern worth understanding in general terms.

The personal item is free and is usually generous enough for a short trip. The carry-on costs money and often costs more than people expect.

Bag prices are typically dynamic, varying by route and by how late you buy. Assume the airport is the most expensive place to make the decision.

The bottom line

Sun Country sells a seat and a personal item. Everything else is an add-on, so price the fare with your bags included before comparing it to anyone else.

We will publish full dimensions here as soon as we can read them from Sun Country directly. Until then this page stays marked unverified rather than filled with borrowed numbers.

Meanwhile, the size checker covers the carriers we have verified, and the general cabin rules apply everywhere.

Some links on this page are Amazon affiliate links. If you buy through one, Carry On Sizes may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. It never changes what we recommend. How this works.

Common questions

What does the Sun Country base fare include?

A seat and one personal item that fits under the seat in front of you. Carry-on and checked bags are bought separately.

Is the carry-on free on Sun Country?

No. Like other unbundled carriers, only the personal item comes with the base fare.

Why does this page not list Sun Country bag sizes?

Because we could not read them from Sun Country directly. Their pages block automated access, and we do not publish figures we have not verified.

Where can I find the exact dimensions?

In your booking flow, where bags appear as line items, or on Sun Country own site when you can reach it in a normal browser.

When should I pay for a Sun Country bag?

At booking. On unbundled carriers the price rises at check-in and again at the airport.

How does Sun Country compare to Spirit and Frontier?

The model is the same. All three guarantee only a personal item and sell everything else as an add-on.
