Carry-On Bag Requirements You may bring one carry-on bag plus one personal item such as a purse or laptop bag. The carry-on max size is 22 x 14 x 9 inches (56 x 36 x 23 cm), fitting overhead bins or under the seat. Most flights do not have a carry-on weight limit, but some international flights (e.g., departing Beijing or Shanghai) limit carry-ons to 22 lbs (10 kg).
Overweight & Oversized Checked Bag Fees Bags weighing 51-70 lbs (24-32 kg) incur fees between $100 and $200, varying by route. Those 71-100 lbs (33-45 kg) cost $200-$400. Bags over 100 lbs (45 kg) are not accepted. Oversized bags measuring 63-80 linear inches (160-203 cm) are charged $200, and this fee can combine with overweight charges. Larger bags over 80 inches are usually refused.
Additional Checked Bag Fees Third checked bags and beyond require extra fees, usually $150 for the third bag and $200 for the fourth or more on domestic flights. Exact charges depend on your destination and class of ticket. Always confirm rates during booking or on Delta.com to avoid surprises.
Special Baggage Items Sports equipment like skis or golf clubs count as standard checked bags and follow regular size, weight, and fee rules. Musical instruments vary: small ones may fit as carry-ons, while larger ones require checked baggage or a separate seat purchase. Verify details on Delta.com.
Medallion & Premium Allowances Delta SkyMiles American Express cardholders and up to 8 companions get the first checked bag free on domestic flights (50 lbs/23 kg). Silver Medallion members get 2 free bags, Gold/Platinum/Diamond Medallion members get 3 bags up to 70 lbs (32 kg) free. Premium cabin passengers also enjoy increased allowances.
Key Takeaways & Resources Always confirm your baggage allowances before traveling. Use Delta.com's baggage page as the authoritative source. Pack efficiently to avoid fees, and consider Medallion status or Delta SkyMiles Amex benefits for extra perks and free checked bags.
