luggage rules?

[turning40withMickey]

Anyone know a quick link to airline luggage guidelines? I am flying Delta and hoping to bring a fridge with me as checked luggage (haven't bought the fridge yet) so I want to be sure to get one that is checkable. Thanks experts!

Each airline has it's own set of rules, although they do tend to be pretty similar. Head over to Delta's site and go to baggage questions.

Um, did you try Delta's site map, or searching for "luggage" or "baggage" in the search box at (I think) the top of each page of their website?

Since each airline is different, I would think locating the information on the website of the passenger's airline-of-choice would provide the most accurate information.

Thank you so much! I knew someone would make is so easy for me to check! Thanks a lot!
Seems like it is no problem to check as luggage in its original unopened box, so that is what I will do, and it gave me a size limitation, so I can be sure to get the right size fridge.
Thanks for saving me a lot of searching time! Have a great day!

One of the boards here, I think it's the Budget Board, they have a fridge swap, you may want to check that out. Save you from bringing one with you.

Um actually that link is for "bulky" stuff for which a passenger might need to buy a seat. A refrigerator* of any size probably wouldn't fit in a seat.

*Does not apply to those little portable A/C-powered coolers or cooler/heaters

Thanks, kaytieeldr, I checked your page from the link first posted for bulky or fragile items. You are so helpful, though!
