When I mentioned consistency (not the same as accuracy, but I'm being pedantic
), I was referring to the information contained in the various GDS, as well as in the airlines' own booking systems, not to anything on websites.
That said, could you provide the website links to the info for CX and OZ?
EDIT: found the relevant page for CX:
http://www.cathaypacific.com/cx/en_H...tails.PEK.html
They list 4 MCTs, of which 3 match the KVS information exactly. The only exception is Int-Int wholly within terminal 3, which they list as 90 minutes vs. the 60 minute(!) rule published in KVS. So quite consistent actually, and I have no idea how often that webpage is updated with the most recent GDS data.
EDIT 2: also found the relevant page for OZ:

Rather messy stuff... spelling errors, no MCT provided for "domestic" (I assume Int-Dom?) etc.
In summary, I would definitely trust the KVS information to be consistent with what Expedia and the airlines see in their booking systems. Airline websites are not updated as frequently, nor do they provide a full set of MCT rules.
