AnonymousI read that you can avoid American basic economy checked baggage restriction by having one of their co branded credit cards. Is that true on international transatlantic flights? I booked a cheap basic economy flight from Finair but on American metal and I’m not sure about the checked bag allowance for having their credit card

I do not believe the free checked bag benefit with the AA co-branded credit cards applies on International Itineraries in Basic Economy and you will probably get charged $60 to check a bag. You might want to phone AA and ask just to be 100% sure. I know AA recently changed the carryon rule, allowing two carryon items if that helps.
