If not I am happy with saving around $200 in baggage fees.

Thanks for your help
Yes, Delta can split into 2 x 2. And that's what you need to do.

There can be a chance on leisure routes. More difficult if you are flying certain days of the week which are really busy. But there is a chance.

The two you split out will lose SkyPriority access inherited from you for check in and security, but 1 bag each (with the other person in the same PNR with a silver) will be fine and comp.

I have flown to AUA, CUN, CZM etc - some days 90% of F are available for upgrades, other days it's fully sold out.
