int'l flying with stops, luggage question

[cls515]

[QUOTE=hex1848;78442]When I went to the DR over the summer, I flew from Jacksonville Florida to Miami to Santo Domingo. The baggage made it just fine. On the way back however, we had to go through customs. We had a 2 hour layover and it took about and hour and 15 minutes to get our checked luggage off the plane. Once we made it though customs and rechecked our bags we had about 15 minutes to run across MIA to make it to our next flight.[QUOTE]

So you have to re-check your bags at the lay over spot going over there as well? Man that is crazy. I was hoping that I would only have to do it once at the departure and then not worry about it at the lay over.
