Delta Air Lines is ditching the hefty $150 fee for oversized sports equipment.
Bringing it in line with rivals American and Alaskan Airlines, the fee has disappeared on mainline flights, although it said charges could vary on Delta Connection flights due to space limitations.
Now bulky items like surfboards, skis, bicycles, and golf bags will be subject to the standard baggage allowance and any individual SkyMiles Medallion status.
There is still a 50-pound weight limit and items like bicycles or scuba diving gear must still be properly bagged or boxed.
"Customers will instead pay a first, second or third checked bag fee according to the fare rules associated with their booking," it states on the Delta website.
