This will depend on the fare class you purchase. Some fare bundles have baggage allowance with the ticket whereas the others don't. However, you can buy excess baggage whenever you want with a fee. The good news is that the fee applied would add on to the total cost of your flight, which means you can also pay that with financing options.
