I searched but didn't see a similar thread, so if there is one, please merge.
Yesterday I was scheduled to fly JAX-TPA-EWR-PIT-CLE-MCI and upon checking in at JAX the bag tag only showed my luggage checked as far as CLE. After I asked the agent, she told me that there is a limit of four segments on one luggage tag, and that I'd have to pick up my luggage somewhere along the line. I asked if she could do a manual tag since US had done that for me one time with a six segment itinerary, but she said the manual tags only have room for two segments. Is this a new policy with SHARES or just an agent that didn't know how to do it?
I ask because I'm flying MCI-EWR-YQC-YYZ-LIM-CUZ on an award ticket in May and don't feel like picking up luggage en route.
