Baggage, Seating & Onboard Amenities
A quick reference before you pack — always confirm exact allowances on your fare rules at booking, since they vary by route and cabin.
Carry-On & Personal Item
Standard fares typically include one carry-on bag plus a personal item, though the lowest-cost fares may carry additional restrictions — confirm the exact allowance for your fare.
Checked Baggage
Checked baggage is generally not included in the lowest fares and must be purchased separately, consistent with Sun Country’s hybrid low-cost model — booking online in advance is typically cheaper than paying at the airport.
Excess Baggage Fees
Overweight, oversized, or extra bags typically incur a per-bag fee charged at check-in or online in advance — pre-paying online is usually cheaper than paying at the airport.
Seat Selection & Cabin Classes
Sun Country offers Economy, Premium Economy, and First Class on many routes, with seat selection often available for a fee on the lowest fares.
How to Find the Cheapest Sun Country Airlines Fares
Four habits that consistently lower what you pay.
Book in the Sweet-Spot Window
For most Sun Country Airlines routes, fares tend to be most competitive when booked several weeks to a few months ahead of departure, rather than at the last minute or extremely far out.
Fly Midweek and Off-Peak
Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday departures are usually cheaper than Friday or Sunday, and red-eye or early-morning flights often undercut peak daytime departures.
Set Fare Alerts
Track your route and let price-drop notifications do the watching, instead of checking manually every day.
Price-Tracking Tip
Compare a fixed date range over a week or two before deciding — single-day price checks can be misleading.
Compare a fixed date range over a week or two before deciding — single-day price checks can be misleading.
Use Flexible Date Search
Searching a date range instead of one fixed day often surfaces Sun Country Airlines fares that are noticeably lower just one or two days earlier or later.
Check-In & Day-of-Travel
Online Check-In
Online and mobile check-in generally opens 24–48 hours before departure, letting you select or confirm your seat and download your boarding pass in advance.
Airport Arrival Times
Arrive with enough buffer for check-in, bag drop, and security — this matters more on international Aegean Airlines routes than short domestic hops.
Domestic vs. International Cutoff
International check-in and bag-drop counters usually close earlier relative to departure than domestic ones, so double-check your specific route’s cutoff.
