Hi,

I am looking to book CX J via BA Avios. Plan is to visit a city in China via HKG
Only option I see right now for J is from YVR to HKG and that arrives at 7pm HKG time, but the only CX flight that goes to my China city departs at 5pm HKG time.
So I would have to stay a night in HKG to make that work. That would means I need to retrieve luggage and and recheck in the next day right?

If I were to book the HKG to China city flight in a different airline, say China Eastern so that the connecting flight would work out on the same day. Is it possible to combine the itinerary of 2 different airlines (one Avio booking (YVR -HKG) via CX and one cash (HKG to China city) via China eastern. So that luggage will arrive directly in China?

Thanks
