when you have a connecting flight, what do you do about luggage?
So i'm going to be flying US airways from madison to las vegas with a connecting flight in chicago on the way there and in phoenix on the way back. I've never flown with a connecting flight before, nor have I ever flown alone (which i will be doing). My question is, when i stop in chicago, do i pick up my own luggage for the next flight or does the airline take care of putting it on the next plane? Is there anything else I should know about flying alone and connecting flights? thanks!!

They handle it for you. If there is any considerable layover, keep track of time zones and be aware of the current time at the airport where you are stopping over so you don't miss your flight. Remember there are four time zones and they are each an hour apart from their adjacent time zones so, for example, when it's 12 noon on the East coast, it's 9 am on the West Coast. It's always earlier in the West (left side) and later in the East (right) side.

The airline will take care of your luggage which should arrive at the airport at your destination (Las Vegas).When connecting flights, the airline help desk near the gate will help you any way should you have any questions. The main thing I have found when connecting flights is finding the gate for my plane. Gates at airports are marked well and there are maps showing directions. Hope this helps you some, just relax and enjoy your trip and vacation.

it'll be automatically transferred to the connecting flight so you needn't worry
