When in doubt, as you enter the bag claim area, there's a little portable counter with an AM/DL sign and the agent will assist with what you need to do. When the "no need to reclaim" for int'l/int'l connections started (first for southbound connections, later for northbound connections), I'd ask the agent just to confirm.
