I am looking at a DC points redemption for the route EDI-SYD. Looking at the available options, the SIN-SYD leg is a no go on the dates. But there are a good few options for the EDI-SIN (either via LHR or FRA). I think my preference is the EDI-FRA-SIN using their new A380 which connects with an SQ service on codeshare.

If I purchase the EDI-SIN legs with my DC points and then purchase the SIN-SYD leg direct with SQ (or agent), will they check my bags for the whole route, even though the tickets are separate (but still with *A)?

Hope this makes sense and that you guys have some thoughts on this?
bmi at Edinburgh certainly won't so the question will be do you want to short-check your bags to FRA only and see if it can be done there
