If you're asking why I am going through the trouble of going from LGA to JFK, it's because the JFK to FRA leg on this option is flying on an A380 business class via Lufthansa, which I have never done before.

My question is this. I am bringing a checked bag with me since I will be in the EU for about two weeks. Since I am required to switch airports, will I be charged when I re-check my bags in at JFK?
Why would you be charged for checking a bag on a Business Class ticket? In fact, even on a TATL Economy Class ticket, don't you get a free checked bag?
