This flight was 1 ticket checked all the way through, but we don’t know how we could tell.

On the next page Expedia indicates it’s “1 ticket: roundtrip”, but who knows if that’s just their summary text or if it means it’s actually one ticket.

After purchasing the ticket the GOL legs turned into Varig, but the flight number are GOL

Sorry for the screenshot from a phone, my sibling purchasing the ticket is in the Amazon and the phone internet works so much better than computer internet that it’s actually easier to take screenshots this way.

None of the other sites could put together this itinerary.

Looking up the locator numbers on GOL and TAPs website, the tickets are checked all the way through both airlines.

Booking a ticket on “Multiple Airlines” means you would receive two (or more) separate tickets. Which in most cases means you will have to recheck luggage on layovers and risk missing the second flight if the first one is delayed.

The same terminology also applies on other websites, such as Kayak.

Source: previously booking such a ticket. I will try to get an official confirmation from Expedia shortly.
