Given the above, will our child have any baggage allowance? Per the United CSR I spoke to, our child will have the same baggage allowance as his parents because he is on the 10% ticket. Can someone confirm that we can check in 3x bags in total for the family (2x based on packages we purchased and 1x because of the child bag allowance)?

Another unrelated question is about child bassinets. We have requested it via the CSR, however the seats we could pick online are not the bulk head seats. Will United change our seats to bulkhead seats when we checkin at the airport? How will this work?

Thanks!
