When checking in with AS at LAX, gate agent wanted to charge me for the 55 lbs bag. I showed her the baggage allowance on the e-ticket, and she didn’t care. I was going to ask for supervisor but decided to just comply and move things around since I was tired from jetlag. After I opened my cases and started spreading things in front of her counter, she decided to take pity of me and give me a one-time exception.
You mean she actually decided not to breach the contract of carriage. That's not to say that you couldn't have a circumstance where different segments on the same ticket have different baggage allowances (no matter what the issuing ticket carrier).
