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.
Exactly what I'm doing on an upcoming trip, as AS couldn't provide award space to/from SFO and won't check bags through, so AS lost out on two revenue tickets and I shouldn't have to deal with landside LAX on the outbound trip (assuming everything runs according to plan). DL got my dough.
