I'll give you an experience that happened 2 weeks ago that may or may not be 
completely to regs. I flew Alaska Airlines to CA from WA. I checked on a 
Feathercraft backpack, containing boat and paddling gear; 66 pounds. I then checked 
on a 60 pound duffel bag. Finally, I paid 50 bucks. Didn't pay a return trip 
price. They did have few people on the plane so they bumped me up to the first 
class for no charge! I'll take that deal anyday.
