Same with, for example, 2 free alcoholic drinks on a BS fare (or whatever it’s called now).

Yet we don’t see page after page, thread after thread of folks going out of their way to call out how it is irrelevant to them.

The cards and fare buckets offer a basket of features and constraints. That’s the nature of things.

Going out of one’s way to declare “I never check bags” is on another vector IMHO. A silly one at that.

There are $Bs of bag fees being collected industry wide. There’s a reason WN changed a policy in this.
