Coming back, it depends on what it says on your ticket receipt. Does it show x bags of max 23Kg/50Lb or x bags of max 32kg/70lb ? whatever the ticket says is what you can expect to be permitted
It says 70 lbs., but it also says, "If your flight is operated by a partner airline, see the other airline’s website for carry-on and checked bag policies.", which would contradict each other. See the screenshot below...
