Do we need to call united and confirm or it'll get sorted at the check in?
How large is the "group"? If a true "group" PNR, more than 9 people this will be a problem. Group PNRs are handled differently and doubt the status inheritance will work.

If a normal non-group PNR, the bag waiver should work.


What is the first operating carrier? is it UA/UX?

And is the status still valid? (note status at travel is what matters, not status at purchase).
