That seems odd. Interlining doesn't require either that the carriers use codeshares nor that the passenger is ticketed with a codeshare, even if it is available. When you purchased the tickets, did you try to call UA and ask that everything be put on the same ticket/PNR?

Ha - flew those Grand Caravans on an African safari . . . we were limited to 20 lb bags plus a backpack/"carryon" (camera bag for me). Of course, they had to keep room for the liquor supplies to the camps.

Couple of things I’d love to hear confirmations
/ experiences on:
- Apparently when going from UA > Mokulele the bags are transferred directly, but on the return Mokulele > UA you have to collect your bags in either HNL / OGG, do agricultural, then re-check with UA at the counters. Seems about right, but a pain … has anyone experienced this?
- When booked on one interline ticket, even with the recheck scenario above, what checked baggage allowance do you receive when checking in with Mokulele? I watched another passenger argue that United gave him three checked bags, but Mokulele wanted to charge for each bag.
Thanks much.

What happens is, UA will waive the charges for Premier members, but they're still part of the ticket; they're just not collected. Mokulele is under no obligation to waive them as well, and they will not.
