luggage during 12 hr stopover
« on: June 11, 2014, 10:39:25 AM »
A friend has a flight NYC to TLV with a stopover in Paris on Air France.  They are landing in Paris at 11:10 am and taking off at 11:15 pm, so a 12 hour and 5 minute stopover.  Does anyone know if they are going to have to pick up their luggage or can it be checked through to their final destination? Air France rep wasnt sure and checked the rules that said that if its the same day then it could be checked through but if its over 12 hours then it cant.  but this flight is same day but over 12 hours.  Manager said that they will have to pick it up.  And if thats so will they be able to check it back in?

If it's on one airline and 1 confirmation number I don't see why u should have to check them in again even the stop is 12 hours

They won't know for sure until they go check in. It may depend on the mood of the person checking them in. I've had situations where they have checked me through with an overnight connection on 2 different airlines.
If it's not checked through, I don't believe they'll be able to check it in immediately. They will have to store it in the airport for the day.
Life isn't about checking the boxes. Nobody cares.

Thanks, if they do have to check it in again do you know if there are places in CDG to store big luggage for the day?

There's one in Terminal 2. It's a little pricey though... €15 per bag for 12-24 hours... ( €6 for 6 hours and €12 for 6-12 hours).

Have a 12 hour stopover in VIE, JFK-VIE-TLV. Will the bags go through? Also, can I just add bags in VIE?

What time of the day is the layover?

I just posted a TR in the Vienna thread might be helpful a bit if you have the whole day there
