My understanding is that as a *G, you get priority baggage (fourth bullet point under *G).

I agree with most comments that actual enforcement of priority tags and handling is spotty. Some places they come out first consistently, some places not so much.
Interesting! Thanks for letting me know. I'll make sure FS-Dad asks for the tags if the agent neglects to add them next time.
