There is another thread for interlining bags when on separate PNR / tickets, see Bag Interlining Changes If Separate Tix with *A & Non *A Partners after 1 March 2015
Bag interlining (also known as “interline luggage”) is a voluntary commercial agreement between individual airlines to handle passengers bags traveling on itineraries that require multiple airlines, even if not the same alliance (if on a single PNR).

Bagagge - Connecting flights
For a trip that includes one or more connections, United will check bags to the final destination stated on the ticket. Your connecting flight must depart within 12 hours of your arrival at the airport in order for your bags to transfer automatically. United will generally transport checked baggage on the same flight as the traveler. If this is not practical, United will arrange to transport the baggage on the next flight with available space.
You'll need to claim and re-check baggage if you are:

- Traveling internationally and connecting to a domestic flight within your destination country

UA Interline Baggage Agreements (single PNR / ticket)
Going to Oman tomorrow. Connect in the Gulf from UA to Oman Air. Just stupidly realized that I'll have to check my bag if I'd like to bring those two liters of booze (beer = US $10/pop in MCT). No time to check and reclaim bag. Separate ticket from Bahrain to Muscat.
I can't find a list of UA's baggage interlining agreements. Will they check it through?

UA Interline Baggage Agreements (single PNR / ticket)
Is there a list of airlines that UA has entered into an interline baggage agreement? I am particularly interested if there is an agreement with Gol in Brazil. Thanks.

In some cases it depends on how things are ticketed. For example QF through to UA is fine when all flights on the same reservation (ie same ticket stock) but otherwise at discretion of check-in staff at originating airport.
