Interesting about the base allowance - so is it a given that checked bags allowed should be the same both outgoing and incoming ?
slide 22 and 23 of the powerpoint

yes, same set of base allowance for outgoing and incoming.
slide 19 for baggage fee information
if the ticket is issued by united, i would have printed the receipt showing the allowance and ask AC check in agents to comply the DOT rules or files a DOT complaint afterwards for non compliance.
it's weird because i don't see AC offering economy basic to TLV, so first bag should be free for them as well.
