Flying Virgin using Etihad points

I've just booked a couple of domestic VA flights using Etihad miles. Having brought up the booking on the VA website, it shows the baggage entitlement as "0 bags". That can't be right can it?

That doesn't seem right, VA offers 1 free bag domestically to all passengers. I'm not aware of any fares that are exempt from this.

EDIT: According to this, Getaway fares are charged for bags. Not sure which part of the site to believe here.

Etihad don't think it's right - the e-ticket receipt emailed to me shows 1pc. I'll take that to the airport just in case.
