Add the FFP number under passenger details in the booking?

I called AA and have them add the Marco Polo number in. After that, they say they don't see that I have any elite status. I am MP Silver, but they say they cannot see it...

Also, where can I see my flights? In the MP app?

Marco Polo Silver offers benefits on Cathay but few meaningful benefits on most other One World airlines. Perhaps the most useful for American is priority checkin. For that you could simply show your card when checking it, it won't need to be in the booking beforehand.

Do they offer free check baggage?

MPC Silver (OW Ruby) doesn't include free checked baggage when travelling on other oneworld airlines.

Were you upgraded very recently? It might take the system a couple of days to recognize your status. Try calling AA and ask again in a few days. If they still don't see it, ask them to remove the number and re-add.

AA uses Sabre while CX uses Amadeus, so you will not see your AA PNR on CX.come or CX's app.

Per https://www.aa.com/i18n/travel-info/...age-policy.jsp, oneworld ruby members are allowed one free checked bag on AA. You can also simply show the card at check-in to use this benefit.
