FWIW your bags may still occasionally travel without you (but you still have to board A flight)

This is false.

If you check into the airport early (4+ hours) your bag may go on an earlier flight without you.

And you can decide not to board your original flight.

I wouldn't say false especially when quoting the whole sentence. What you suggest is so rare (worldwide) it might as well be false. It's such a bad idea for the airline to ship your bags before the passenger makes it onto the plane.
