Is it correct that any AA elite member extends there baggage allowance to pax on the same PNR?
If so, is there any verbiage somewhere that states that?
Thanks

Hello there,
Just a quick and probably fairly basic question if I may. We are a family of 4 hoping to travel to GCM from the UK via MIA, where MIA-GCM segment will be on a separate booking. I am aware that the allowance will not be carried over from the transatlantic sector, but am slightly confused as to what we are allowed or have to pay for. We have booked a redemption with BA avios, and this states a HBO/basic ticket has been purchased.The adults have sapphire and emerald status via BA, so my question is does that mean we can check our 3 cases that we require free gratis on these tickets?
Many thanks in advance for any info or guidance on this.

AA/AS award
I am a CK contemplating award travel in F RDU-JNU and ANC-RDU. AA.com is offering me connections in Seattle to/from AS that might not allow sufficient time to go landside at SEA, reclaim luggage, and re-check. So my question is, if AA will issue me an award that includes AS, will they hold to their policy of not checking through baggage?

Baggage policies with <24 hour overnight stopover
Hi,
We are traveling SEA-DFW 18 hour overnight stop DFW-CDG.
Will we be charged for baggage on the first leg of the trip?

Still need to know if you are on one ticket. PNR is irrelevant.
If one ticket, you will reclaim your bags at DFW because of the length of the connection, but you will still have your one-bag allowance (or more if you are in F/J or have status, credit card).
