I'm buying 2 different tickets for this itinerary so I'm a bit concerned about tight connections. However, they're all with OW so hopefully that would make it a bit better.
The tight connections are is this:
Code:
UL225: CMB-DXB
DEP: 6:25pm
ARR: 9:40pm
Connecting
CX738: DXB-HKG-EWR
DEP: 11:00PM
ARR: 11:05AM
My concern is with the 80 min transit time too risky? Also they're on separate tickets so would I be able to through-check my luggage from CMB-DXB-HKG-EWR?
Second Tight Connection:
Code:
LAX-HKG-DXB: CX897 + CX731
DEP: 9:40AM
ARR: 3:25PM
Connecting in HKG
DEP: 4:30PM
ARR: 8:55PM
Connecting in DXB-CMB-SIN UL226+302
DEP: 10:45PM
ARR: 4:55AM
With this I only have 65 min connection at HKG and around 110 mins at DXB. Would my luggage be through-checked all the way to SIN? Also... Would I have any recourse if the delay at LAX makes me miss my connection from DXB-CMB-SIN?
Thanks!
Edit: Do you guys recommend that maybe I should take a earlier flight to DXB from LAX/HKG and just spend 16 hours in DXB? =\
