Connecting flight luggage question?
I'm travelling from Indianapolis to JFK to Kuwait. I booked my domestic flight from Indianapolis to JFK separately (via Delta) from my JFK to Kuwait flight (via Kuwait Airways). So, my two connecting flights were booked separately and there are from different airlines. My question is -- Will I be able to check-in my luggage at Indianapolis airport directly to Kuwait? I was told that travelling from Terminal 3 to 4 in JFK is a real pain especially since I have two big suitcases. Also, what about luggage allowance? Delta only allows a traveler to check in one baggage free of cost but Kuwait Airways allows two. Will Delta allow me to check in both baggage free of cost since I have international connecting flight?

If you show your itinerary to DL in IND, you **may** be able to check bag thru. You will have to pay for any bag you check on DL--your DL ticket is sold under domestic terms & conditions!

I don't think you will have any luck at all here. Delta and Kuwait Airlines are not in the same Alliance and they do not code share as far as I can tell. I am certain that Delta are going to charge you for the extra case too. No good news, sorry
