If this is in respect of your forthcoming trip to/from Tangiers, and if it is on one ticket, it cannot be an HBO - or rather Basic - ticket, these are only point to point single or return. If the travel agent conjoined a Basic ticket into the booking then the agency will be ADM'd the amount to full Y, a mistake they will only do once (hopefully they won't charge it on to you.....). But if the boarding pass says you have a bag, so will FLY and you will be OK for bags.
