*G on LH basic economy UA ticket
have an upcoming USA-FRA-KEF round trip in basic economy where all but the first leg is on LH. i get that basic economy comes with no seat assignments and no free checked bag, but my star gold (through UA) status used to mean one free checked bag on LH up to 23kg at check-in for a TATL itinerary. is that still the case?
also, does anyone have recent experience on whether LH tends to give preferred seats to star gold members at check-in or am i looking at a middle in the back?
