You pay at the airport. How many passengers with you? I'm assuming you don't have any special status with airline.

I also think it's cheaper if you check in online.

After 3rd or 4th u have to speak to cargo dept.

Pay someone with *G to go with u, 6 suitcases free between the 2 of u.

You can status match your delta plat to *A gold and get 3 free bags a passenger
I think, but don't have experience though
