    ******************* ref number: LOSQAV 7/7/2024.The electronic ticket I received ( return ticket from *** to *****) upon payment, had 2 checked baggage ( 2X 23 kg). At the travel day, while checking out my baggage at the checkout desk, the airline representer (name is *** and his supervisor) refused to honor the ticket and forced me to either pay $110 for the second baggage, or not to board at all, in an extremely rude manner. It was very frustrating and I had to pay for the second baggage.
