Avios booking appears as hand-baggage only fare on US Air?
I am traveling tomorrow on a USAir domestic flight in the States. This is an Avios booking, and I am a Gold member. When I tried to check in, the system showed that I had no baggage allowance. In looking further at the ticket confirmation that was emailed to me, it does state that it is a hand-baggage only fare. I do not recall this being disclosed at any time in the booking process. I logged into the BA website and made a dummy booking. Hand-baggage only fare is not listed as an option when selecting my flight. On the itinerary and quote page the following, very confusingly, does appear:
Your baggage allowance
Free checked baggage per person
Hand baggage only fare. No checked baggage allowance.
For flights on British Airways, there are restrictions on what you can pack, how heavy your bags can be and on the dimensions of your bags. You may be charged for any overweight or extra bags.
BAEC is now closed in the U.S. Has anyone else run into this problem and any suggestions on how to solve it? I will have limited time in the morning to call.
