I am looking at a trip to Nepal, and seeing as booking it all as one trip through a single airline is extremely expensive, I've decided to purchase several different segments on different airlines to get there. This would have me take SQ 970 from SIN-BKK arriving at 8:35 and then fly TG 319 from BKK-KTM departing at 10:15, giving me an hour and 40 minutes to transfer. Normally that shouldn't be too much of a problem, and if you do end up missing your flight due to a late inbound arrival, the airline should have you covered. However, since I am booking the two flights on separate reservations, TG probably wouldn't re-book me in the event that I do miss the flight, right? Now I've read on a few threads that even if you are booked on two separate *A reservations, the agent at your originating airport should be able to check your baggage all the way through to your final destination. (here is one such thread) Does this extend to ticketing as well i.e. would I be able to have the Singapore Airlines agent print me boarding passes for both segments of my trip? If not, I would have to clear immigration in BKK, check-in with TG, and re-clear security which I'm not comfortable with only allotting 1:40 for. And if it turns out the SQ agent can do that, would I be covered in the event that I miss my flight? If the answer to any of those questions is no, I'll probably spend the night in a hotel, and take the flight the next morning.
