Interline baggage agreement??

I plan to fly Tokyo by Delta Airlines and try another Asian airlines inter-asia.
I might choose EVA, Cathay Pacific or ANA.
But I'm not sure who signs interline baggage agreement with Delta.
I don't worry about ticketing,I just want to avoid claiming and re-checking in my baggages. Is there any website to check that?

You probably need to talk with a travel agent for this request. In general, to have your bags interlined , you will need to have all relevant flights on the same itinerary and not have a >23 hr stopover. This means that regardless of who the other carrier is, you need to book the flights within a single booking.

It is probably more work or hassle then it is worth in your situation.

You'll have to collect your bag to clear customs in Japan.

It's just the difference between dropping at the bag drop outside Customs and dropping them at the departures lobby a few floors up at Narita.

Something to consider, though, is that JAL, Cathay and a few others are in terminal 2, a totally different building. Delta is in terminal 1 with ANA, Asiana, Korean, etc., though granted that breaks down into north/south too.

Welcome to FT. Call DL and ask if they have a baggage interline agreement with your desired onward carrier at NRT. Your connection has to be less than 24 hours for this work.

Did a similar thing for DL to CX and PR @ HKG.
