So AA EXPs in economy now get a minimum of 2 free standard size bags up to a maximum weight of 32kg each when checking in for BA-operated flights?

That's what the result would be according to this http://www.aa.com/pubcontent/jbax/in...le=bagchk.html which mentions a waiver of the fees for such customers having bags weighing between 23-32kg.

BA Silvers, however, get more of a free baggage allowance than AA PLT according to the above since AA PLTs are not mentioned as being granted a waiver for bags weighing between 23-32kg.

According to that link BA Silver ends up entitled to a free baggage allowance of 2 x 32kg while AA Platinum would end up with just 2 x 23kg.
