I am Marco Polo Silver

This time I was gonna use Asia Miles to book the SFO--HKG segment and buy the HKG--MNL leg. I called marco polo and they told me that I could get my luggage checked all the way through at the SFO desk. I would get 2x23kg luggage on the SFO--HKG leg, but since I was buying the HKG--MNL leg, I would only be entitled to 30KG of baggage.

Qustions: Since my luggage would be checked through all the way to MNL, do you think they would have a chance to reweigh it for the HKG--MNL leg?

Do you think the SFO check in desk would make note of the lesser allowed baggage? for the second leg?

for both questions, I dont think they would even take notice of it.

also, for the return trip, the bags would be mostly empty.
