2. American Airlines

To get a discount with American Airlines, you’ll need to be an active duty personnel or a dependent of one. While American Airlines don’t offer a discount on the price of flights, there are government and military fares available in some markets. But, you can check-in 5 bags for free when on travel orders. This service usually costs $25 for the first bag and can even be up to $200 for each bag, if you’re checking-in four or more. Additionally, you can check-in 3 free bags when on vacation or for other travel purposes.

Get the latest information on military fares by calling AA Reservations on 800-433-7300 if you are currently in the U.S or Canada. To get the baggage discounts, it’s as simple as showing your Military I.D at the check-in desk.
