Look at the bottom of the web page
Extra baggage is a benefit, but not "
free" baggage. So that may vary. USA & EU airlines operate differently.
What do you think a bag allowance is? It means what you get for free. STE+ and STE gets at least 1 extra bag. Even if allowance is zero, you'll get 1 bag at least free.
US/EU both use piece concept for bags.
