My ticket allows 1 checked bag, but I'd love to not have to go through passport control in LHR to check the bag since I'm not sure if gate checking will be ok.
I'm assuming the answer to this is no and airlines that have partnerships with UA outside of *A don't get the same treatment, but no harm in asking.
Come on Oscar!! You don't know your own airline's rules???
I think it's not possible, I believe the interlining rules are pretty much for star alliance carriers only but someone correct me if I'm wrong.
PS. Love the username
