Perhaps those tags are used by CX when a passenger is connecting to another Oneworld carrier (either as a replacement to their own First/Business tags or in addition to their own First/Business tags)?
Somehow it seems like that if a bag is tagged with a generic Oneworld priority tag that retagging is not to be done down the line? I hope this new generic tag is a new protocol for Oneworld carriers.
