RENO, Nev., June 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Get your wine glasses ready. aha!, powered by ExpressJet Airlines, is waiving baggage fees for wine from its popular wine destinations.

"Your vacation doesn't have to stop when you land at home," said Tim Sieber, head of ExpressJet's aha! business unit. "Many of aha!'s destinations are in incredible wine regions throughout the Northwest. And now, we're making it easy for you to bring your favorite wines home to enjoy from the comforts of your home."

The program begins today, one month ahead of aha!'s launch of flights between Reno-Tahoe and the Charles M. Schulz Sonoma County Airport in Santa Rosa – connecting wine-lovers with the famous California wine AVAs in just under an hour. Santa Rosa joins aha! wine country destinations in Oregon, Washington, and Idaho.

For a limited time, until November 30, 2022, aha! will accept one dedicated wine bottle case as a free checked bag. Customers can opt-in by selecting the "wine flies free" option during booking or by declaring their wine item during their check-in at the airport.  See flyaha.com/winefliesfree for complete details and restrictions.
