You won’t see me flying them anymore going forward…
Star Alliance doesn't require anything more of them than giving you +1 bag over the standard allowance. In fact, this isn't as bad as the LH group airlines, which manage to get away with no baggage allowance at all even for *G pax on their economy light fares.
