Funnily enough, I'm flying out Wed 30th and my routing is
  • EDI-AMS
  • 2h 45m
  • AMS-BOS
  • 2h 25m
  • BOS-MCO
All on the same ticket with KLM/Delta. So from what you're saying in BOS we'll have to pick up our bag and then re-check it (will this be in the main check-in, or is there like a transfer section in the luggage pick-up to just place it down again?)

Thanks
