Not always an option, particularly to and Hawaii and Kauai islands, where AS does not offer daily nonstops. Ticket agents have discretion in such matters, ALK can simply direct them to honor AS status when checking bags.
If they are able to check bags through to the final destination, it should not be an issue.
