All passengers are allowed one free personal item and one free checked bag. Due to the weight and balance constraints on all aircraft flying to and from Unalaska/Dutch Harbor, our priority is to carry customer’s first bag and will guarantee that. We cannot guarantee transportation on the same flight for a second bag. Additional baggage may, however, be checked-in and accepted on a standby, space-available basis. You will be notified by Aleutian Airways about picking up standby baggage when it arrives.
