Southwest Airlines will no longer offer two free checked bags to most passengers starting May 28 for flights booked on or after that date. The change applies to standard customers, though those with loyalty status can still check one or two bags for free based on their tier level. The policy adjustment aims to refine pricing strategies, affecting bookings made from late May onward.
