SWISS Light fare - Buying additional *check* baggage
I am booking an intercontinental flight with SWISS. I selecte the Light fare that doesn't include checked in baggage. However, then there is an option to add checked in baggage (23kg), which I chose. However, when I got to the payment, I see
A part of your chosen tariff only includes hand baggage. If you want to check in baggage, please return to the flight selection and select another tariff, or add a piece a baggage on the "Options" page. After completing your booking, you can also add a bag on SWISS Choice.
But the information about the selected options is:
1 additional baggage item(s)
which costs $60.
Does it mean it is 23kg of hand luggage? That makes no sense. Do I get checked in luggage with these options or does the light fare not have it at all?
