Yes, I can vouch for this.. some check in agents will not alllow u.. I had a similiar experience once when coming from Sydney to India via Spore.. I wanted a 2 day halt in Spore and the ticket was made tht way.. but in the airport in SYD, the checkin agent was not allowing me to check in saying i reqd a visa for spore.. she refused to believe tht i could get VoA in Spore for upto 3 days.. Only when I logged into the net and showed her the spore tourism website stating the same, she relented.. so my advise is also better safe than sorry.. speak to the airline to confirm .. indian embassy has said tht intl to intl transfer is no problem and this shd hold good nothwithstanding the terminal change..
