No special membership required and no checked baggage fees. That’s right, you can bring home an entire case of wine for free when you fly on Southwest Airlines. Of course, there are a few caveats, so let’s dive into the details of this new perk.

If you are departing from one of the above participating airports, you can bring one properly packaged case of wine up to 12 bottles. The case must weigh 50 pounds or less and fall within Southwest Airlines’ standard sizing limit. You must also be at least 21 years or older. If you meet all of these requirements, then you can check a case of wine for FREE. Make sure your wine is packed in a sturdy, leakproof container, and bring it unsealed to the Help Desk for inspection by a Customer Service Agent. The agent will ensure it is properly packed, then seal and label the case for you.
