Ie if you book their equivalent of BE which comes with zero allowance, you'll at least get one free bag, if one allowance then two, if two allowance then three, but no extra allowance if three is your allowance to start.

I'm too tired un all three alliancalliances. DL/KL are far above AA/BA (especially BA) and AMS is the easiest airport to transit in Europe.

plat so STE+. Seems to be an all economy seat arrangement, I don’t see an extra leg room section but I was selecting row 3 so maybe why…

No middle seats blocked in any rows forward of that so that’s why I presume no biz.
Are you trying to pull up and doing seats on AZ.com? I know sometime DL.com tries to incorrectly charge on partners. Call AZ if nothing else.

Due to a mistake I made - I have accidentally merged this thread with the AMEX Companion Fare thread.
I am in the process of un merging these manually - as best as I can - and they will be temporarily closed as I complete this action.
