Not worth it for me. The dayrooms are pretty basic, and overpriced for what they are, but for only 4 hours, I'd say they're likely the best choice.

I get in on UA (to BKK) and need to leave for SIN (on Thai) about 8 hours later.

Need help with the following:

IAD-NRT-BKK (all on UA) layover in BKK for 8 hours
BKK-SIN (on Thai) layover in SIN for 10 hours
SIN-ICN (on SQ)

Will UA interline my bags to Thai? or do I need to get my bags after passport control and check them on Thai?

I understand that if I leave passport control to check my bags, I will need to pay the airport tax (BKK)?

I have an on-going trip from SIN to ICN (on SQ), will Thai interline to SQ?

So my dilemma is, if UA won't interline my bags to Thai and Thai won't interline my bags to SQ, I will have to get my bags (leave passport control) in BKK and SIN to take to the respective airlines.

Anyone...please help?
