try the baggage fee calculator

If checked thru starting with UA, no additional fee. If checking-in on the return and the flight started with UA, UA's route / cabin rules apply. No credit card waiver, and elite waiver may or may not be offered.
If all on the partner -- the partner rules apply.

yes
See the AC website for AC rules/
According to the baggage calculator there is no baggage allowance. My spouse is a primary cardmember but she is not going to be traveling. Which means no free bags
The UA site offered me a bundle while booking the award, $54 for Economy Plus seating and 1 "extra"checked bag (0+1=1!) for $54 each way.
