Spirit Airlines Baggage Allowance
Passengers traveling with Spirit Airlines are welcome to bring:

The Spirit Airlines carry-on baggage allowance is one small personal item; 18
x 14 x 8 inches (45 x 35 x 20 cm). A fee applies to bring an additional, larger
item, with dimensions of 22 x 18 x 10 inches (56 x 46 x 25 cm).
The fee for bringing an additional item on board varies according to when the
allowance is purchase - at initial booking, before/during check-in, at the
airport, or at the gate.
For most flights the fee is $37, one way, as standard, if purchased during
online booking, or before online check in. If a passenger is a member of the $9
fare club, they can purchase their carry-on allowance for $28. If, however, the
allowance is purchased during online check-in, the cost is $45 as standard, or
$36 for fare club members. The price increases to $55 at the airport, or $65 at
the gate.
A number of items do not count towards a customer’s carry-on allowance, such as
a diaper bag and a pushchair.
