Checking Baggae Through to Destination
 
Hi all

Another dumb :o question, but I guess here is the place for the answer!

Booked from LHR > MIA > MCO in October on AA. Usually fly direct with VS, so this is first time with connecting flights in the States. When baggage is checked in I assume it is checked through to MCO?

As I understand it we will have to clear Immigration @ MIA, then check in for connecting flight to MCO. Is this correct?
Do we have to collect baggage, clear customs then re-check baggage?

Aplogies if this sounds dumb / confusing!

Cheers:D

You will need to pick up your luggage in MIA and go thru customs. Just past customs, you'll see a place to drop off your luggage again. It's really easy

but keep in mind that the liquid madness still applies for your carryon bags mia-mco. checked bags are fine but remember to have your freedom baggie handy as you will still need to re-clear security at mia
