1. Anyone with CK experience in HKG, can you share your experience?
(I have a 1 hr 20 min transit to China Airlines and I always get lost in HKG so I have requested for a CK rep to assist but little worried...)
2. Does AA offer baggage check-through on SEPARATE TICKET on a NON-OW airline? (I emailed CK and they said YES until end of Jan. 2015. However, there was a thread on FT that says NO...)
I have been met by CK twice in HK, after coming off 137/138 in Business. Very helpful and very quick. Just as a note- requesting it gets you nothing, its all "random" and based on connection times and such. Everytime I have called to request it I never get it, but im batting about 60% on intl meets just saying nothing.
I have had AA able to do it from AA>Alaska, but beyond that I am of no help as I never check bags.
