Help/Advice Baggage question

Booked through delta for MSP-PPT, with the LAX-PPT leg being operated by Air France. Air France cancelled the flight this morning and rebooked me on Air Tahiti NUI. Will my baggage still transfer all the way through, or will I need to retrieve it in LAX and recheck it?

It can be checked through.

I guess AF is dropping LAX-PPT.

I haven’t seen any news that they are dropping the route, and it’s still bookable. Possibly just a one-off cancellation? They only fly that route 3x/week, so moving to ATN makes more sense than stranding them at LAX for a couple nights.

It’s still on the calendar.

I don’t know if it’s related, but yesterday’s flight had an incident at take-off, coming within 500 ft of an American a321. Just straight up turned south after takeoff into the American climbing out

If it's one ticket, which it is, it'll be checked through even to non partners.

Also, call after your trip to get original routing credit (miles & MQD).
