Last time I flew Allegiant they told me and my friend that the plane only held 65 bags and they offered to check our bag for free. We did but took forever to get the bags in tiny Owensboro, Ky. Going back we did not check them as no one offered but as we waited we heard them asking for volunteers to check their bags for free. We kept ours with us.
