You get a carry on.
You get priority boarding.
All you are missing is picking your seat
And what do the other travelers on the same reservation get?

Thanks.
Can anyone else confirm that travelers traveling with me can bring their own checked bag and their own carry on? Do they all get priority boarding?

The only way for them not to get a carry on is if you got a basic economy ticket. Yes if they are on the same ticket as you they get a checked bag and priority (or what ever level boarding it's called....)

Sorry. In my original post I mentioned that I was talking about basic economy. I didn't realize that I didn't reiterate it now.

Thanks for your time in answering my questions but I still don't see an answer to my last question.
davidrotts63 seems to think that if I have a credit card the only restriction would be no assigned seat.

How don't you see an answer?! There's a limited amount of people iirc like 9 ppl. What ever the benefits of the card gives, it will give. The card doesn't give a carry on benefit  and therefore it won't give that benefit. But checked bag and earlier boarding is a benefit so it will give it.
I hope this clarifies.

Yes. Thank you!
I decided to do a little googling... https://www.google.com/amp/s/thepointsguy.com/2017/06/credit-cards-defeat-basic-economy/amp/
Seems like I'm wrong. Good to know as I always fly American.

As of 9/5 all Basic Economy flights will allow a carry on. Card holder or not.

From your questions it seems that you are a cardholder which then the changes don't help you.
