Gets to DTW and uses the “track bag” function to see the bag is now circling the Detroit baggage claim instead of boarding flight 2 with her.


Any way to avoid this? No idea how but their scanners must have said to DTW. Perhaps because they break up the legs for non rev check ins? I had her checked in for both 20h prior
