Flying with low-cost airlines is a great option when you’re traveling on a budget because tickets truly come cheap. Unfortunately, there are many hidden costs associated with budget carriers that you should be aware of before booking your flight—starting with these five.

Check-In

Never head to the airport before making sure you’ve checked in for your flight online. Failing to do so can result in hefty fees because in-person check-in doesn’t come free.

Seat Selection

Sitting with your travel companion seems like a reasonable demand, but it won’t be so easy to pull off when you’re flying low-cost – unless you’re ready to pay extra to select your seat.

Carry-On Suitcase

In the early days of budget airlines, carry-on luggage was often included at no additional cost, but times have changed. Most low-cost carriers now restrict passengers to a backpack of specific dimensions, and you’ll have to cash out more money for extra luggage.

Flexible Dates

When flying with low-cost airlines, the date you picked is set in stone. If you want your booking to be more flexible in case of emergencies, you’ll most likely have to pay extra.

Food and Drinks

Most established airlines provide complimentary snacks and beverages, but low-cost carriers are a different story. Get ready to pay extra for food and drinks because nothing is free – not even water.

Budget airlines allow you to explore the world at a low price tag, but you should tread lightly when booking flights with them. Your flight won’t be so cheap if you end up paying a bunch of extra fees, but you can avoid additional costs by not making these common mistakes.

Late Check-In

Always check in before reaching the airport when flying with low-cost airlines. Checking in on the spot is an option, but these companies usually charge extra if you’re checking in at the airport—plus you’ll be wasting unnecessary time in the check-in queue.

Baggage Fees

Baggage fees will significantly increase the cost of your ticket. If traveling light isn’t an option, research all the possible options for checked-in luggage and see which one works best for you. Also make sure that your suitcase fits the required size, and make payment online because it can be more expensive on the spot.

Don’t Pick Your Seat

Unless you’re flying with friends and family and you want to sit together, don’t be too picky about your seat. Low-budget airlines charge extra for seat allocation, and this is usually a waste of money when it comes to short flights.
