  • overnight connection - it's your problem
  • duty free - it's your problem (AFAIK, if I am wrong, please tell me how to smuggle Duty Free to connecting flights ;-))
  • the only exception: airline's fault misconnection / overnight delay; I am pretty sure I read somwhere you can request access to your luggage then
