Good evening,
I have a flight with Swiss from FCO to IAD via ZRH and JFK (JFK-IAD is a UA flight). I have a "stop over" in ZRH (if it matters: I think technically it is not a stop over as it is below 24h (I arrive 4:30PM on a Friday and fly out to JFK at 1PM on Saturday)).
Question (as I'm actually ZRH based):
When I continue my flight on Saturday to IAD via JFK: can I check-in luggage in ZRH (not having had any checked luggage from FCO to ZRH before)?
Thanks,
Tom

Yes. I recommend you only Check-in FCO-ZRH on Friday, then just do a "regular" check-in at ZRH on Saturday and check your bags.
Just to rehash this question (although I believe Unterwegs has already answered it):
I have an itinerary LHR-ZRH-YUL, all on LX. I have about 5h in ZRH. My luggage allowance is ample.
Can I check in 1 bag LHR-YUL and then add a second checked bag (stuffed with chocolates, of course!
) for ZRH-YUL?

You might better explain that you already have a piece checked in / show them the luggage receipt to make the process in ZRH faster. Especially the agents in T3 (near Migros/Coop) seem to be a bit clueless sometimes

The FCO bag can go straight through whilst you will have no troubles giving in an extra piece in ZRH. I do it frequently when moving possessions between US/CH/ZA. It is however quite interesting if you do it with TLV as destination... likely a visit to the "other" queue for a little chat...
