1) Can I check in luggages all the way through (CX-TK interline in MNL) or they have to be taken out in MNL along with immigration?

2) What is the current traffic situation in MNL? (Heard the airside bus seems reliable and the new elevated HWY has drastically helped traffic congestions). Is 3HR+ still an absolute minimal for transfers at MNL?

Thanks for your help!
1.) Highly doubt this could be done as CX and TK aren't partners and they operate in different terminals. However, best to call CX and make sure.

2.) 3 hours is more than enough transferring from Terminal 3 (CX) to Terminal 1 (TK). The elevated highway really made moving between terminals and into the city much faster.
