I am booked on two separate tickets to transit in LHR (same day / airside = no checked luggage). Arrival / departure on both flights with Swiss (T2). Onward connection in ZHR to JNB/DAR.

Based on current into, I require a proof of covid test + fill the passenger locator form.

Any concerns getting the boarding pass for the connecting flight? My routing GVA-LHR then LHR-ZHR-JNB-DAR. All flights on Swiss all the way to JNB.

Does Swiss check-thru luggage (on two Swiss tickets)?

Thx!
If you miss the flight departing LHR for any reason, Swiss will not be responsible because you don't have a connection (you do have what FTers call a self-connect), and it won't be protected.
