Checking Baggae Through to Destination
Hi all
Another dumb
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

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
