According to the AA website, there is a $30 fee for my bag if I fly economy class and pay cash for my ticket on flights to and from Mexico from the USA. Is the baggage fee also charged if I use my frequent flyer miles for the ticket, at the mileage saver rate? (Baggage fees for award travel.)

I have no AA Status.

(I spent a half hour googling this question and got nowhere.)
what credit card gives you free seats that other credit cards don’t ? Just curious
