Luggage, connecting flights and customs question for USA
I'm flying to the USA, from Australia, through LAX and catching a connecting flight 6 hours later, think it's the same ticket, booked all at once. I've never traveled before, and I'm wondering what happens with customs.
Do I collect my bags at LAX so they can be checked? Do I have to check in at every airport or is it all done when I catch the first flight? There are 4 flights on my itinerary.
