International transit different airlines, not checked in. How does it work?

[Borisdog]

OK, so I'm coming back from Tahiti to Auckland in September on QF codeshare and then have a few hours wait before getting on an F award EK (QF code) to BNE.

How do I check in for the EK ticket? - Do I have to exit and come back in or can I check-in at the QP?

I'll be HLO. Is it possible to get them linked in the booking so I could maybe get BPs all the way from Tahiti?

Any tips on easiest method gratefully accepted.

Check in online would be one option. Otherwise I believe there is a transfer desk at AKL

Start by asking on Tahiti if they can check you in on both and u through check the luggage.

Go through international connections security and go to the EK lounge. They will be happy to issue BP's. I did this recently. Yes, I did get an odd-ish look, but they did it. I did check in online the day before, but that seemed to actually confuse things a bit tbh.

One does not need to show BP at the connections security point. If HLO no need to worry about bags so all good.

note: EK lounge, not QF. QF won't be able to help.

As an aside if TN(Air Tahiti Nui) are late you could be right out of luck so fingers crossed.

Thanks all.

You can check in online and use a mobile pass with EK from AKL
