NRT connection
Morning, I'm traveling DPS>NRT on Garuda on a Skyteam award ticket in C, arriving in NRT at 0840. Connecting same day to JAL 10, NRT>ORD, at 1050. From research online it appears that Garuda can interline my luggage (2 bags) to JAL in NRT provided I can demonstrate I have the booking on JAL. I am hoping that I can do online check in while still in DPS so that I won't have to go to a check in counter in NRT and pass through Japanese immigration.
Does anyone have suggestions about the best way to do this? If they won't interline the bags for some reason, I have to go outside and check in again? Is there a transfer desk where I can avoid actually entering Japan to do the check in? Thank you!
