Flying w/ United & ANA codeshare. Baggage allowance question for military
Hello! I'm flying soon with United Airlines from Denver (DEN) to Vietnam (SGN) with a layover at Tokyo (NRT), then with ANA codeshare to SGN on the last leg. I'm an active U.S. military, and United allows 3 checked luggage @ 70 lbs/ea when checking in at DEN.
On the return flight from SGN, I'll check in with ANA at SGN airport, and I wonder if ANA will accept my 3 checked bags @ 70 lbs/ea weight without adding extra cost since my flight were booked with UA.
I know the standard weight limit is 2 check bags @ 50 lbs/ea, but it's the "New Year" in Asia and I'm bringing gifts to the family.
Flights were all booked with United.com. All flight # are UA coded. Anyone with a similar predicament in the past can shed some light?
Thanks for the help!
