> For baggage - whether checked or carried on board - Spirit has an unusual
> tiered system that charges passengers more the longer they wait.
> 
> Passengers who are members of Spirit's $9 Fare Club will be charged $25 for
> a carry-on bag. Other passengers who pay the fee online will be charged $35
> online, $40 over the phone, $50 at the airport ticket counter, and $100 if
> they get all the way to the gate before declaring their carry-on.
> 
> Spirit said Monday that its fees pass the cost of handling bags to
> passengers who bring them rather than raising prices for all customers.
> 
> The Miramar, Fla.-based airline lets customers bring one free personal item
> on board if it fits under the seat.
