If you have a single ticket with a departure or destination in the U.S., the DOT's single baggage allowance rule will apply to the entire itinerary.

The cost differential of purchasing a single ticket is not insignificant compared to purchasing them separately. The only reason I am looking at routing through DEL instead of BOM (my actual destination) is to be able to use GUCs all the way from the US to India. BOM is a greatly under served airport with just a single AF flight from CDG.

I was trying to book a Jet Airways flight through DL miles. The international segment shows up online but the domestic connection to DEL does not show up. Was advised by a agent that they can't add on domestic Jet airways flights. I need to add the fight to get the through check-in of the luggage.
Is that correct?

I haven't heard of such a change where you cannot redeem on Jets domestic flights. Maybe there is no availability on that segment?

Its definitely available. Agent was able to hold it but said it didn't price up so would need to speak with some other department to see how many miles it would be.

Took about 20 minutes on the phone, but it got done.
Edit: had to HUCA twice though. I couldn't even get DEL - LHR on the website, so first agent could book DEL-LHR for me but couldn't add any of the MAA-DEL flights; I went ahead and grabbed DEL-LHR. Second agent couldn't price out the change to MAA-DEL-LHR for me; HUCA one more time before it finally got done.

Yes, albeit as part of an international itinerary (MAA-DEL-LHR, with a 16 hour overnight in DEL). Website and app kept erroring out; had to call to book, and then the agent had to get some special desk to "manually price" it..
