Do I need the *G card when I check in in order to get the 3x70 suitcases on UA? Or if its on my reservation its enough?
If things work properly, it will be on the reservation.
I never had to show my card to check in 3*70.
+1
LH once asked me for it, and I believe OS doesn't really have the ability to "see" it

And do I get the extra bag even if the 2nd leg is operated by Elal?
How many suitcases does *G give on a US flight TLV-PHL-NY for the card holder? Does it give any extra bags for other pax on itin?
3x50. AFAIK, yes.

Anyone able to PM me a Star Alliance Gold number i can add to my United reservation?? TIA
