Through checked baggage at LIM to AM on same ticket?
Just checked in at CUZ and the agent said we needed to reclaim our bags at LIM and recheck with AM, despite the bags being tagged through to TIJ and the flight being not only on the same ticket, but the LATAM segment is an AM codeshare.
Is this the case that they won't transfer the bag to AM, or are we going to waste time sitting at the baggage claim?

Had to reclaim and recheck. What a stupid process. AM actually even retagged the bags and the AM agent said there was no reason for this to happen, but that LATAM are just bad partners.
On the bright side, the Global Blue tax free kiosks work great!
