Singapore Airlines skrev:Baggage allowance for journeys involving multiple airlinesJourneys to and from the United States‘Marketing Carrier’ refers to the airline that sells the ticket for a flight. It may or may not be the one to operate that flight. The 'Most Significant Marketing Carrier' is generally defined as the airline whose airline code is represented in the ticket for the geographically longest or most significant stretch of the journey.For journeys to and from the US, the first marketing carrier will determine the baggage policies for the entire journey. The first marketing carrier may choose to apply the baggage policies of the Most Significant Marketing Carrier or apply its own baggage policies for the journey.Example:Washington –[XX] – San Francisco – [SQ] – Hong Kong – [YY] – SingaporeIn this example, Airline XX is the first marketing carrier whereas Singapore Airlines is the Most Significant Marketing Carrier. Being the first marketing carrier, Airline XX can choose to apply its own baggage policy or to apply the policy of the Most Significant Marketing Carrier. The policy that is chosen will apply to the entire journey.Journeys where the origin or destination is not in the United States‘Operating Carrier’ refers to the airline that operates the flight. It may or may not be the airline that sells the ticket for that flight.
