This is not true. I often book mixed TP and LH itineraries via Expedia since neither of these (Star non-Alliance) carriers allow consistent mixing of their flights on their own websites. In this case, I assume I have the "classic" variant since I always get 2 pieces of luggage as A3*G. As for seat reservations, that's another issue between *A carriers that is hit and miss.
Only way to avoid getting Light when booking via an OTA is combining two different airlines, but then the prices go up (as Light won't be available anymore)

I'm actually curious about this one: I booked TXL-BUD on LH in Light, but later got lucky and won one of their 1000 upgrades and got upgraded to C.
Now, the LH site doesn't show any luggage allowance and say I've booked Light - but the etix mentions 2pc.
I'm thinking that having the allowance on eticket trumps anything that LH has in their systems elsewhere, but not sure if that's actually true.

eticket will show your correct allowance. The business upgrade discussed in this thread (not the manual upgrade you got) doesn't change the fare or baggage allowance of the ticket.

LH A320 J - need clarification
Flying LH this week through FRA. Connecting flight both ways is on a320. Already upgraded the first leg (747-8) with united GPU. Debating whether there is any value to paying $115 to upgrade each leg on the a320 (3 hr flight each way).
Currently seated in row 15 (exit row). My number one goal is leg room. Please advise where I'm best off - biz or exit row (15)
Thanks

I don't recommend paying for an upgrade on one of LH's A320 aircraft. The Business class cabin is a joke; all it is a guarantee that the middle seat will be empty and the same seats and same legroom available in the Economy cabin. All it might otherwise get you is a better meal.
