Good evening everyone! We are flying through PR to Tortola with an American/Silver code share next Saturday. I was on the Silver website a few days ago and noticed that they now have a one checked bag (per passenger) policy. Our issue is that we come down for two weeks, and we have a lot of gluten free items for my wife and daughters. I also like bringing things like our Mantus dinghy anchor - worth the money and travel headache (IMO) since we never have to drag our dinghy up the beach!

We typically check 4 bags for 4 people and then gate check our carry-ons here in Raleigh. In the past, all of the bags have just transferred to Silver and we don't touch a bag until Tortola. However, now I feel like we need to make sure the carry-ons get on our first two flights so we aren't over the 1 checked bag limit. I've tried to email Silver - they don't have a customer service number - but they aren't replying. Do any of you have a recent experience with this?
