The connecting flight from TPA-MIA is available to "buy" on BA.com as an avios booking for 18k avios + £6 all in for the 4 of us Would I be clutching at straws to think that by buying my "flights" through "ba.com" the "checked baggage policy of the airline that operates the longer leg will apply"

I've just had a read of this http://www.aa.com/i18n/agency/Bookin...tkt_policy.jsp is this the policy offering protection as mentioned by nux?

You don't have a connecting flight, you have a separate booking.

Yes that is the correct AA policy for protection on separate bookings.
