Hi,

I'm UA Plat, based in SF, and I bought 2 award tickets for my mom to Shanghai. She is visiting my Aunt in Vegas on the way back. I booked as two separate itineraries.

SFO-PVG (all UA)

PVG-NRT-SFO-LAS (PVG-NRT is ANA, rest is UA)

On her 1st trip, she inherits my status and gets up to 3 bags free.
On her 2nd trip, 2nd bag charge is $70 (because of ANA?)

Is there any way for her to get 2nd bag waived? Was I supposed to book the whole thing as a multi-destination in one itinerary to get 2nd bag free? Or will she have to pay the baggage fee for ANA either way?

Any help on this would be appreciated. Worst case she'll just bring one bag.

Thanks,

Ignore this, I called the Premier Line and they were able to put in a note to get it waived.
