Codeshare check in question

This trip is my first with a codeshare for the first flight, and I’m not clear where to check in.

In a few days, we will depart Malaga, connect through Paris, then Atlanta and home. Our tickets are booked through Delta, but the first leg is operated by Air France.

Do we check in at the Delta desk or the Air France desk at the airport? I’m not even sure Delta has a desk, since the only flights I know about out of AGP via Delta are either Air France or KLM…. But I’d like to be clear on what I’m doing before I get to the airport.

For codeshares, you always check in at the airport with the operating carrier, so AF in your case.

(As you have correctly realized, this has to be the case, since half the time the ticketing/marketing carrier doesn't even operate from that airport at all.)
