I've booked a ticket for my wife. On the eticket there is nowhere I could find info about which account that reward ticket was booked from.

Would the airport check-in agent be able to see whose account it was booked under?
What airline is she flying? Isn't first bag free on most airlines?

Ah noticed not the case looking at this for AC: http://www.aircanada.com/en/travelin...e/checked.html

But often a AE reward flight will show the status of the person who booked the flight - so if you have any status it will be reflected on your wife's BP and she thus might get a free bag anyway.
