    BKK Intl to Intl transfer - bags not tagged all the way

    EK have an interline agreement with MH which I have used on seperate tickets. I suspect even though you are on a QF flight number the EK agent will ticket through to KL. Having said that, if Qantas won't, you would need to check-in in Sydney, i.e collect your bag in SYD domestic and check-in...

    Baggage Emirates Qantas on separate Flight Numbers

    Yes and yes. You may have to pick up your QF boarding pass at HKG, but that is all fairly easy. Transfer points are well signed and there are many (4?) throughout the airport so bound to be one close to the gate you land at.

    QF makes it difficult to fly with them.....

    I am sitting on 4000 status credits and my year expires in August. As only half are QF flights, I was half thinking about going for P1 so tried to book the codeshare to London. I can't! The QF site only lists the BA numbers. Also the site won't offer HKG-SIN-LON. Any ideas? Thanks in...
