Hey Folks,

The Mrs and I have booked a flight from Heathrow to LAX in July. Our final destination is San Luis Obispo which is 1/2 way between LA and San Francisco. San Luis Obispo has a small regional airport that is serviced by United Airlines.

I want to book a transfer flight from LAX to San Luis Obispo. My question is will we have to collect our luggage at LAX and then go through check-in and security all over again in LAX? We would like to just be able to do all of that dance in Heathrow and switch planes at LAX and have our luggage magic it's way on the next leg.

Any ideas on how that all works?

Thanks!

Dave
