It will not be tied to your reservation. If you present the card assuming it's Chase branded CO debit or credit, your first bag fee will be waived. The card must be present as reservations aren't tied to your Chase accounts.

Greetings: Maybe with this note I'll stop having FlyerTalk nag me into writing. One can always hope( Yes, we can!) Anyway, I think this is a great policy as someone that had begun to move my infrequent travel to Continental and then subsequently away from it because of their 1st bag fee, I'm very pleased to see this policy change. Thank you, Contintental!

Do you think this applies if you are a cardholder, but are crediting the flight miles to a partner airline? Obviously it wouldn't be automatic, but if you present the card at check in should the fee be waived?

Hi srodr, if the OnePass number that corresponds to your Continental Chase account isn't in your reservation, the simply present your Continental Chase card to us at the airport when you're checking your bags. In these cases, we'll manually exempt the fee.

A friend and I will be leaving out of LAS in the morning. I have two CO credit cards and I am PLat. Elite. She is flying to CLE and I to IAH. I purchased my ticket she had a company purchase hers.
I was wondering if any one has had similiar circumstances and been able to get the bag fees waived for a friend?

Unfortunately she is not eligible to have her baggage fee waived.

However, when she checked in this morning, she was informed that as the non-primary, she was not eligible. Did I interpret the quotes wrong or was there a change in policy/courtesy is simply expired?

Quick question about this. My wife is the secondary on our PPC (no spouse rider attached) and is non-Elite, and is travelling on her own today. I was under the impression from the above that CO would waive her checked bag fees as well upon presentation of the PPC with her name on it.
However, when she checked in this morning, she was informed that as the non-primary, she was not eligible. Did I interpret the quotes wrong or was there a change in policy/courtesy is simply expired?

Oh well, at least I found this month's CO mag feature article interesting enough to take a copy with me.

I also have a similar question as nbs2.
My wife's parents are traveling tomorrow and her father is an additional cardmember on my Chase World MC. However, he does not have his card yet. Has been lost in a mail probably
. I understand that his card needs to be presented upon check-in for the baggage fee to be waved, but is there any way we can get it waved retroactively?

Authorized Users?
I just got this card and have some questions. Maybe COinsider can help out. The PR says "primary", but others have said if you just have the card and present it at the desk it will work. What is the official answer? Has anyone got their first bag free as an authorized user on the card?
I was hoping for a more exciting first post, but hey, I'll set the bar low.

any sites that offer Cash Back for chase credit card application??
I'm applying for the card and would also appreciate any links for better than the standard offers on continental's site.
