I have a similar query to the OP and wondered if you could clarify something for me, please?

Is the above true for "connecting" flights if the bags are reclaimed and later rechecked between flights? Specifically, I am flying CX HKG-SIN and then BA SIN-SYD. Although ticketed as a "connection" rather than a "stopover", I will be reclaiming bags for my evening arrival in SIN before checking them back in with BA the following evening with both flights on the same ticket.

I would like the overnight in Singapore but am happy to change to same day connecting flights to ensure that I benefit from BA's allowance.
