In order to receive free bags from AA by paying with a AA CC. Do I need to pay the whole amount with the AA CC? Or if I divide it between a GC and CC it will also be free?

You can pay with any card you want to receive free bags with AA, Just attach your FF#

If your card is attached to the FFN, And you have a card that has free bags benefit, you will get free bags. No difference which card was used to pay for the ticket.

I want to fly Delta domestically so I could extend the life of my Flying Blue miles. I have the Delta AmEx. What do I do to get the Flying Blue miles but also get a free checked bag as a AmEx cardholder?

Put in your Delta skylines number when you make the reservation and after check in (i.e. by the gate) you can switch it to your Flying Blue number.

Is it true that if you book a flight on AA and make a change within 24hrs there are no change fees? Recently, I booked a flight on AA to leave at 8:30am but the next morn I saw a flight that was leaving later and better suited for my plans, so I called the airline and a rep informed me that there would be change fee of $200. The ticket was only $144. So I ask to speak to someone in Advantage thinking I would just use my miles but was informed  there is not a change fee because reservation was made less than 24hrs-I ended up paying just the difference in cost and I was on my merry way. So is this true about not paying a change fee  or misinformation from the  CSP.

Until recently AA offered a way to hold a reservation before purchase, so they were exempt from the FAA 24 hour rule.  But not any more.  So any (most) ticket  to or from the US has to be fully cancellable within 24 hours.  So changes are cancellation and rebookings. And are free.

I've a flight from Yul - Tlv stop in Brussels for 50 minutes.
Google flights are saying for the first leg usually delayed by 30min +

What are my options should I cancel or I could make it ?
