Furthermore, are we allowed overhead space by virtue of status?
AAdvantage elites get free checked bags on B6. AAdvantage elites do not get to use the overhead bins on B6 Blue Basic fares: you are limited to one under-seat "personal" item. There are a few exceptions to the latter restriction, including if you purchase EMS seats on your flights.
