Yeah, and I also mentioned it in the original post. I suppose I could have clarified that I was directing that at Nick specifically with his comment about picking up the bag once arriving in the Schengen region.

flassher, you are right. PPBM (Positive Passenger Baggage Match) is a requirement on international flights, and is also often attempted (not an absolute requirement) on US domestic flights. However, I know that many airlines also have a stand-by tag that can be attached to the checked bag tag, maybe that can be used for standby pax like that?
