Earliest you can check bags
« on: May 11, 2017, 11:37:43 AM »
I'm flying Delta JFK-->ZRH landing at 8:00am then on a sepperate ticket flying ElAl ZRH-->TLV leaving at 10:00pm.  Can I check my bags with ElAl right when we land so I don't have to worry about storing it for the day and recovering it later?

(sorry if this is in another thread, I did look some but didn't find anything)

Usually only 4 hours before flight.

Unless Elal has other earlier flights they may not open the counter until 3-4 hours before the flight.
