Also note that even on international connections greater than 6 hours, DL systems will default to short checking a bag, but a good agent can override.
DL fares to Alaska allow for up 24 hour layovers before stopover occurs. Hawaii fares are 6 hours before a stopover occurs (however, they allow for stopovers on a single fare component for an additional fee).
