Do BAHols bookings include bags?
I need to visit CLT in the US (in Y) and BA Holidays offers good value on the AA direct service.
But I haven't done this since the HBO TATL fares were introduced and I'm confused - on ba.com if I select a flight and then add a car it seems I have no luggage allowance. But if I start at the BA Holidays page then it seems to allow me 1 bag... which is fine, but is that on account of my OWE status or would that give me another bag too? And... I understood that BA marketed and AA operated = no bags. But does that just apply to BA flights, not BA Holiday bookings? Confused! And just to add to the confusion... if I swapped the direct flight home for an indirect service with the TATL on BA metal, does that change anything? |
If you want to book flight+car, select that and then go from there and then check the baggage allowance before booking. You may be booking into an ‘inclusive tour’ booking class that includes checked bags. |
All BA Holidays include a checked bag.

Thanks to Sealink and richardwft.
I have now booked a holiday flight+car combo. During the booking I was told that I had checked baggage included (but no indication of how much), then a checked baggage allowance of 0 bags. For future reference, now that it's been ticketed MMB tells me I have 2 x 23kg bags. I assume that's one standard and one OWE bag. |

I'm sure WOTAS will be fine. |
However, if you use ‘custom trip’ it is possible to book with economy basic which doesn’t include luggage. |

Does the 'custom trip' still book as a holiday then? Does it get ATOL protection? and/or do you still not get offered POUGs?
You may have to call for the pricing for economy basic. I know they can issue these as they did it one way for me (unintentionally) when I made a change. |
