Airline Fee For Checked Guns





Air Canada has begun charging a new fee for checking firearms and ammunition, and rumors are that domestic carriers will follow suit. The firearm fee is $50 each direction. The airline says it now applies the fee to all specialty items from surfboards to bicycles to rifles. However, according to the Air Canada Web site, golf clubs are not assessed additional fees. Along with NRA and Safari Club International, NSSF opposes these unnecessary and costly fees that will have the effect, if not the intent, of discouraging hunters and shooters from traveling to enjoy their sports. If you experience additional fees while traveling with firearms on an U.S. carrier, please report it to NSSF at info@nssf.org.
