Also I have heard that the carry on rules are much stricter in Europe than in the US. I an used to taking my 17" laptop backpack as my personal item as well as my 21" roller bag. I assume this will not fly with BA?
On the ticket / itinerary receoipt , the baggage allowance will be printed. If it says 2 pieces of 23Kg, then that will apply to the whole journey - if it says 1 piece of 23Kg, then the extra allowance will not apply
The OW benefit of additional allowance only applies where the flight is both marketed by and operated by a OW carrier - so check the receipt
Regardless - there will be at least a 1 piece allowance for the entire journey
