Does anyone have experience doing an INTL-INTL connection at BOM - especially with 2 different airlines? Any idea how this would work? how much time required? what do I do if 9W can not give me a boarding pass for my onward flight? how does the TR desk at BOM owkr?
Please help with inputs / advise - thanks
Have not done this myself.
However, read reports of others elsewhere / FT who have done it.
2 hours should be fine.
The 9W folks meeting the door of your DXB flight should be pretty much able to get you the next BP for CX. (They usually have someone walk downstairs and get the BP). THey might take your passport with you.
Also, you can get in to the lounge...as they are all post security and post passport control in BOM..(near the Duty Free area).
This is also arranged by the transfer folks or by your 9W folks meeting the plane.
