Before you pack

2 points

  1. Confirm the exact bulky-item fee for your specific route before booking - it varies substantially between Pacific-regional and USA long-haul sectors
  2. Anything over 23kg incurs an additional excess-weight charge on top of the bulky-item fee

What riders report at the counter

1 report

  • On US routes the board-bag fee runs roughly USD 140-200 per bag depending on route (USA-Fiji vs USA-Pacific Islands) and season, above the FJD 100 domestic/regional bulky-item rate — kite and windsurf gear is not itemized separately from surfboards and golf bags
