Free 1st Bag with Delta Amex

Do you need to book your ticket with the Delta Amex to get your first bag free or just show it at checkin?

No need to book on the delta card.

Neither. Just make sure your skymiles # is on your reservation.

This would make a good addition to a wiki somewhere.  Which airline cards just need FF#, which need to be shown, and which need to be booked.  Anyone?

AA and DL need to be linked to membership number, UA should be booked on the card.

No need to open a new thread on the delta card.

You don't have to use the card.

Is it still the case that you don't need to have paid with the Amex Delta Gold card to get the free bag if the frequent flyer number ties the reservation to the card?

Am booking approx. 20 people domestically on delta, but only have 1 Amex Delta that provides a free bag for each person on the itinerary.

Max amount of passengers per itinerary is 9.

Cost of flight is $69.

Can I book myself 2 tickets on the same flight under different itineraries, so for $69 I'm getting 9 more free bags plus a spare seat I can use for one of the infants?

Will this work?

No
One of your tickets will cancel
