United Award Economy X - is this EcoFly or Extrafly?
I will be flying IST-MUC on TK under a United award in Economy X Fare. Trying to figure out what my checked baggage allowance will be on Turkish. According to their website, EcoFly has no checked baggage allowance (basic economy) but ExtraFly has a 23 kg allowance. What would the Economy X ticket be equivalent to on Turkish?

be prepared to pay for checked bags
This is a contentious topic and many folks ended up paying for bags that probably shouldn't have had to pay to check.
This is the current thread discussing the matter.

TK branded fares apply to TK 235- stock issued revenue tickets and not apply to award tickets.
Award tickets issued by United have their own rules set up by United, rather than following ticketing rules of Turkish, they follow their own rules subject to the agreement between them.
Also, yes, there is an issue regarding pax on UA award tickets reportedly asking to be paying baggage fees on United issued award tickets.
