FlyEasy - Croatia Airlines' new fare option
I have discovered a new fare option, FlyEasy, on Croatia Airlines, and it's basically a hand-baggage-only fare. So as a star alliance gold member (SQ) will I get one free checked-in bag if I book that fare?

Croatian Airlines charges a wonderful 15 euro "ticket service charge" per ticket to book a flight on their own website. Expedia, Orbits, and other 3rd party sites do not charge this fee meaning that it is cheaper to book a Croatian Airlines flight on just about any other website other than their own. However, I can only ever book the FlyEasy (VEASY1) fares on 3rd party websites. These do not include a checked bag. I would really like to book a FlyOpti (VOPTI1) fare which does include a bad and the added cost of the fare is significantly less than the checked bag fee is separately. Does anyone know a way I can book a FlyOpti fare and avoid the ticket service charge? Is there a 3rd party site I can use for this?

This isn’t working it just removes the flight I want from the list rather than going to a higher fare class.

So figured I would bump rather than start a new fare. Just posting my first experience with a FlyEasy fare. Online, even after online check-in with *G it was saying I would need to pay for a bag. However, at the airport, there was no problem and the bag was checked, no questions asked. So if anybody else is not sure about which fare to purchase, based on the bag, I would say don't worry about it. You shouldn't have any problem getting 1 free piece as *G.

This is what they will allow for sure: 1 carry-on up to 8 kg in weight and 115 cm (55x40x20 cm) + 1 personal item that can be a smaller bag or a briefcase. There's a chance they'll ask if you want to check in your carry-on on busier flights.
