Luggage policy - TUIFly

Hi
Does anybody know whethe Etihad's luggage allowance applies for flights booked via Etihad that include a segment flown by TUIFly?

Ive looked at Etihad's website for partner airline luggage policies but TUI isn't mentioned.

Thanks in advance

Would you mind sharing the flight number? I suspect it is a TUI-operated flight wet-leased by AB and AB rules would, therefore, apply.

Thank you - there are a few options depending which German airport I fly via, a couple of examples are
EY 1761 and EY 1751

As per the GDS:

2AB/X3 2745 J4 C2 DL IC TC PMIMUC 0955 1205 320 M 0 67 DCA /E
Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L9 V9 S9 N9 Q9 O9 P9 E9 W9 Z9 G9

OPERATED BY TUIFLY GMBH.

So it is TUI wetlease and AB rules would apply

Thank you for this.

Hilarious conversations with Etihad platinum guest over this (even by Etihad's standards it was horrendous) to get something in writing - they didn't know; yes; erm; no; call the contact center (who didn't know). Eventually they've confirmed what you said - in writing.

Thanks for this - I used what you said to draw out an answer.
