Huh?
What does that have to do with getting *A gold?
You get 3x if booked via a TA anyways.

Yes.
Depends on how the TA books the ticket. I know TA who never charge the customers card...

Well obviously if your card doesn't get charged you are not getting 3x.
How are you paying them then?

I think he means that only the airline charges your card not the TA

On one of Dan's posts on A3 Gold he mentioned:

Elite Benefits:
-Star Alliance Silver gets you and your travel companions a free checked bag on Star Alliance carriers like Air Canada, United, and USAirways.
-Star Alliance Gold gets you and each of your travel companions 3 free checked bags on Air Canada, United, and USAirways.  United even allows each bag to weigh 70 pounds.


However, I haven't find any evidence that this perk is actually given to all travel companions, at least on *A airlines members' (Turkish, United, Lufthansa) websites.
Most state that the card holder gets this extra baggage allowance, and this is also written on Star Alliance website.

Anyone have witnessed otherwise and can correct me?
Thanks!

on Air Canada companions are not getting extra baggage allowance

The TA charges the CC to his Corp.... He uses his own card to pay the actual ticket.
