I would pay to upgrade on PSC-SEA and get the free checked bags, plus even sky priority perks the whole way through.
You'll get it even with a free upgrade, but only if you've been upgraded before checking in

DL always goes by the highest cabin of any flight in the direction. Even if first flight is Y, the second flight confirmed in F will result in getting the F allowance.
