PM flying with friends - free bags / Amex question

Hi everyone,
I am flying down to New Orleans with a group of friends and we will all check bags. Should I book the tickets under 1 PNR? I, however, want higher upgrade priority. If they are on my reservation, they will put me lower on the list, right?

I've been searching the threads and it seemed like some agents allowed free bags to other members of a medallion's party even if they aren't on the same reservation. Is this right? Any tips?

Also, if I have the standard AMEX platinum, the $250 reimbursement of airline charges include SkyClub entrance fees for guests, right? (Since the card only grants access to me)

Thanks! Any help is greatly appreciated.
