If you are AA Exec Plat or Plat (or a higher tier members of a few other OW FF schemes), you are allowed 2 free checked baggage in WT.

If you are in WT+, you are allowed two bags up to 23kg each.

The first extra checked baggage will be charged £34/$51/€43 if you pay in advance on BA.com. If you pay at the airport, it will be charged at £40/$60/€50.



That was also my understanding LTN Phobia, which is what i posted further up thread.

Further to that i would like to express my apologies for some of the more unhelpful replies that the OP has had to his/her questions ! We are actually quite a friendly bunch on this forum
