Requested route ATL-LIM (award on Alaska/LATAM) - Cusco (would want to do a cash LATAM metal fare)

Would LATAM be able to combine these reservations into ONE ticket so my bags transfer through to Cusco or will LATAM not touch an Alaska Reward booking? I have a LATAM reservation number.

THX!
Are you ATL-based, or are you booking a positioning flight to ATL?

One option to consider: Delta will check bags through on separate tickets if flying Delta on one ticket, and LATAM on another ticket. What I don't know is whether they'd do it across three tickets - e.g. XXX-ATL (DL); ATL-LIM (LA); LIM-CUZ (LA). At the very least, if you need to position for a flight on LATAM with bags, DL is a good option.
