Jetblue Codeshare w/TAP Checked Baggage Question
I am not very experienced flying with Jetblue. I am looking at flights (purchased through TAP) DEN-BOS-LIS-CMN. The DEN-BOS and BOS-DEN legs being on Jetblue codeshares. I am specifically looking at the TAP 'Classic' economy fare which provides two checked bags. On TAPs website it specifically states two checked backs for the Jetblue legs.
My question is will Jetblue recognize this at the start from DEN to BOS? I believe only Mint gets two bags included in the fare. Since this is an economy fare, my concern is that Jetblue staff would not recognize the two bags included in an economy fare. I'm not sure what fare class this books into and what the equivalent would be with Jetblue. All flights are coded as TAP flights and will be purchased and booked through TAP's website.
Does anyone else have experience with this?
Thanks!

TAP's bag policy will apply. However, I believe Classic fares only get one checked bag for free.
The airlines have computer systems that handle this, so they should see that you get a free checked bag at check-in. In my experience, the jetBlue customer service staff in DEN are quite nice.
