I suppose I will not be entitled to my international 50LB checked bag on the STL->MDT leg because it will be considered separate? I emailed Delta but they just gave me the generic checked baggage links.
Also, it seems Delta have changed their AU<->US policy of 2 checked bags at 50LB a piece – appears to be now 1 checked bag at 50LB a piece for anyone not a Silver Medallion member or above.. (economy).
EDIT: Actually, speaking of Silver Medallion status - my wife is a Silver Medallion, since we are flying together, can we go to the priority check-in desk in Sydney even though I am Bronze scum?
It makes me sad that I am Bronze, we only just switched from Qantas to Delta and average 20K miles each per trip which we take once or twice a year.
I assume you are referring to Quantas Silver status and Quantas Bronze status and not Delta Silver and Delta Bronze (which doesn't exist.) or VA Velocity Bronze (which also doesn't exist)
Are you booking your flight under Quantas Flight Numbers or Virgin Australia or Delta?
