2 luggage questions

2 luggage questions...?
It's been a long time since I've flown, my daughter and her friends will be taking a trip soon. I've been having a slight argument with one of the fathers about what happens to your CHECKED luggage. here's the jist of it: they will be flying out of Salt Lake City then have a lay over in Memphis of 1 1/2 hours. final destination Philly. he says that in Memphis the girls will have to pick up there CHECKED luggage(like in baggage claim) and then go to their next flight to Philly. I say that they don't have to get their checked luggage, that in Salt Lake they will tag it to go all the way to Philly and the girls won't touch that luggage till they get to Philly. so who is right?? My second question is where online is the best place to find out what she can and can't take in her carry on bag. (i.e.. meds, electronics, etc) Thanks for any help you can give!!!

No you don't have to pick up your bags in the baggage claim. Just make sure that when your child checks their luggage at the front desk that it says Philly on it. If the bags have the correct destination then the airport staff will take care of all checked luggage. The previous answer has the website for carry-on luggage facts. General rule is that all electronics are allowed, most meds if they are labeled, and a small amount of liquids (though if you have checked luggage you should just stick your liquids in that)
