1) Not by virtue of being GGU's. The traveler determines the rules for changes. (And you lose the GGU that was applied, the Gold member can ask for them back, but only the MVP Gold)
2) If you are in U before you check in, you get first two bags free (https://www.alaskaair.com/content/tr...ers-exceptions)
3) No, you move into U fares and no bonus there, just the underlying accrual of the original ticket.
