I am flying HKG-AUH-LHR all on EY metal, with the two sectors being on separate PNRs.

Will EY through check my bag at HKG despite two PNRs?

I have a 9 hour layover in AUH. Might that also affect things?

Thank you.
They might, but Etihad are stopping it:

Effective 1st of February 2017, guests who are travelling on separate PNR(s) as a result of purchasing separate ticket(s) are not eligible for through check-in to their final destination, neither shall their baggage be through tagged to final destination. This policy applies to all EY to EY, EY to EY Partners and EY to Other Airlines (OAL) flights, and effective for tickets issued on/after February 1.
