Checked bags free on partner flights booked with Delta miles?
My itinerary was booked using Delta SkyPesos and includes legs flown on DL, KLM, and AF metal. I used my Delta Amex which supposedly gives me one free checked bag.
I am fairly certain this applies to the leg operated by Delta. What about the intra-Europe legs operated by KLM and the TA leg operated by AF? Do I still get the first bag free since I booked the itinerary with my Delta Amex through a Delta agent? Or do I have to pay for all checked bags for the non-Delta-operated flights. FWIW, I am flying Y.
Thanks. A search of the forum for "checked" bags yielded many threads but I did not see anything specific to this issue.

You get at least one free checked bag on DL/AF/KL TATL itineraries regardless of whether or not you have the magic AmEx, so you should be fine.
