I honestly wanted to laugh but I politely told her that yes, it is! Staff next to her also confirmed it, and she quickly backtracked and told me then of course it could be done.
i'll be flying the LHR-OSL-DOH leg soon, may I ask how long of a transit time you gave yourself at OSL? My flight is the 6pm flight and I was thinking of getting the BA flight that arrives at 4.10pm...... Without baggage it should be doable but I'm scared what happened to you will happen to me!
Yip did check in at the J counters at LHR, just was not in the mood for arguing the point (and happy I did not as I managed to check the bags in OSL all the way to KUL).
We had plenty of time - arrived ex LHR at 10h40 and departed on QR at 14h55. Spent the time in the lounge eating the best gravadlax
(which disappointingly was not available on the way back!)
