I don't check bags a lot but this year it has seemed to improved.
Last month was the first time in over a year since I've checked a bag on international, but I connected in DTW, and there was a different claim belt for Skypriority and that is the first I have seen that. At least a dozen bags were on the kettle belt before SP bags started coming out and that was pretty irritating seeing I connected to be guaranteed use of an SWU and was paying a lot for a B fare ticket
