Delta Airlines will automatically transfer your luggage to your connecting flight. However, there are a few exceptions to this rule: If your connecting flights are on different airlines, you will need to pick up your luggage at the first airport and recheck it for your connecting flight.

Why is skiplagging wrong?
"Skiplagged deceives the public into believing that, even though it has no authority to form and issue a contract on American's behalf, somehow it can still issue a completely valid ticket. It cannot. Every 'ticket' issued by Skiplagged is at risk of being invalidated," the airline said.
What happens if you don’t pick up your luggage right away?
What happens if I don't pick up my bag from baggage claim? If you don't pick up your bag from baggage claim, the airline and airport authorities will usually hold your bag for a certain period of time, typically ranging from a few days to a week, depending on their policy.
What happens if my flight is delayed and I have a connecting flight with the same airline?
If the missed connection is the airline's fault (a delayed initial flight due to mechanical problems, for example), the airline should rebook you on the next available flight. If the next outbound flight is the following morning, the airline should either book you on another airline or provide accommodations and meals.
