Now there’s a baggage debate: Cheaper to ship your luggage?

If you don’t know, now you know. Airfarewatchdog and the Washington Post each have their break-down of the costs associated with checking your luggage on your trip — whether it’s one bag, two bags or more. Wired breaks down the strategy, which goes a little like “if you’ve got more than one bag to check and you’re not a business traveler, the postal service / UPS is your best bet.”

The Post has a pretty checked-baggage-cost chart up here, and the AirfareWatchDog has their price chart here.
