Now on to my question. I'm flying a oneway saver ticket with a connection in a couple of weeks and I have a reasonable suspicion that I could get an F upgrade offer on at least one of my two segments based on historical patterns. If I accept this offer, will I get the complimentary F baggage allowance on the ticket?
If an upg is offered and cleared before luggage check, I suspect the answer is "yes".
