Hi everyone, I've recently using my QFF points redeemed a J award tickets HKG - BKK. The first leg will depart HKG at 3.50pm.
I will be at WUH (city of mainland of China) that morning, and the only flight from WUH - HKG is under KA, and the flight will depart at 11.40am and arrive at 1.40pm.
I understand that if nothing goes wrong, there should be no problem for me to catch the second flight to BKK.
However, if there is any sort of delay, what's the risk here?
1) The two flights are on different tickets but KA & CX are sort of the same airline, so what's the likelihood I will be able to get my BP at WUH or at least I can get my baggage checked through to BKK?
2) If, for any reason, my first flight is delayed, can I request CX to move me to the next available flight? or I need to call QFF to sort out the booking change? How much change fee possibly involved?
I need to take the risk and cost into consideration and make a decision whether to spend the prior night in HKG or not.
Thanks in advance.
