Tip: Now you can opt into SMS messages, which provide you with a message if there is a time change on your flight prior to departure.

Step 5: Bags, Seats & Extras

When you book, you have the option to choose your preferred seat for a fee. Keep in mind that booking is the best time to select your seats for the best price and availability if you’re looking for extra legroom or exit rows. This is also the best stage to add extras like checked baggage, trip insurance or priority boarding. Bag prices are the lowest at the time of booking.

  • Bundle Deals: Combine your seat assignments, bag options, and trip extras ahead of time and save money on your upcoming trip.

  • Bags:

    • Under the Seat: 17" H x 13" W x 9”D

    • Overhead: 24" H x 16" W x 11”D

    • Checked: 62" linear & 50 lbs max

  • Upgrade to Priority Check-In and Boarding: Make travel hassle-free by gaining access to the priority check-in line at the airport and the priority boarding (zone 1) at the gate. When flying out of Minneapolis, save time by gaining access to the TSA Priority Screening Lane.

  • Add Seats: Best Seat, Exit Row Seat or Standard Seat

    • To get the seat you want, purchase seat selections in advance. If you’d prefer not to pay for a seat, you will be randomly assigned one at check-in.

  • Extras:

    • Car Rentals: Save up to 30% today with exclusive car rental deals through our partners Avis and Budget. Plus, Sun Country Rewards members earn two points per $1 spent on the qualified portion of a completed rental.
