Hell yeah - when you transfer from (say) NW international to NW domestic you have to get your bags off the belt and recheck them.

Same thing here. When you start an international leg, your bag goes through customs, security checks etc. So you do have to check your bags again when transfering from 9W domestic to NW international.

Now try flying 9W BOM-BRU and then transfer to (say) DL to ATL there. Your bags will be tagged straight to ATL after you clear security at BOM. You wont have to recheck them at BRU.

I have never been able to have my bags tagged through to my US end point while travelling from BLR/NAG by 9W and connecting to NW/KLM. I had to carry the bags myself from one terminal to the other.
