Since you haven't flown AA in a while, I'd get my boarding passes before I leave for the airport just to make sure the Group 1 boarding is on it. (Note that Group 1 boarding is not the same as PriorityAAccess)
Thank you, Apieinthesky! I appreciate your help!
So, I shouldn't be concerned now, that my reservation includes the baggage fee? Just check the boarding passes when I print them (24 hours beforehand) and then call if the group 1 boarding isn't on there, as that would be a sign that the free bag isn't on there either.
