Yes I know passport control is at the port of entry, and we are exiting the airport, so going through the airport is not the issue.
The issue is regarding the interline and whether the ticket meet the AA requirement of being on 001 stock as LH is not a OW partner and the concern is whether they will interline the bag (as AA states they will not check the bag through unless the ongoing non-OW flight is on a 001 ticket.)
