I am starting in San Diego with American Eagle where I fly to LAX then going onto Hong Kong with Cathay

They are claiming that I will have to pick the bag up in Hong Kong and check in all over again because the Singapore Airlines ticket is booked on a separate ticket
just as I had originally feared UGH
I'm thinking to tag the bag to LAX then maybe Cathay will check the bag all the way through to Singapore?


Experts Help !!!!!!!!!!
I'm back to square one!~ sigh or I hopefully have another clueless agent
Complicated!
AA has both a ticketing and baggage agreement with SQ:

But the separate ticket is the issue. I would short check the bag to LAX provided you have enough time to pick up the bag and recheck it with CX.
