In order to avoid starting a thread, does anyone know how one can JS on Delta with a checked bag? I would think go to the ticket counter and ask them to create a listing as a JSer but everytime I've tried that I always get told to just go to the gate to list for the JS (which obviously one can't do while trying to check a bag).

Any # to call ahead of time to at least create a PNR/shell listing to facilitate a bag check?

Thank you
