Other five AUS cannot check in as AUS, need to make them honorary CHN HK (two of them not actually CHN HK due to CNL Article 5, other 3 not travelling on their HKSAR passports this trip)
Will have to tell CX desk to change all their nationalities when we get there.
(P.S.
MeltingAlf : I can proceed after AUS passport info, but OLCI ends in fail result.
Maybe I was going via laptop. And at least in my case and my mother’s case, we can’t tick have return ticket anyway - only four pax have tix back to AU.
It might be easier if they let us complete OLCI but collect boarding pass from desk)
That's interesting - I'm on SGP passport so never really tried CHN HK or some other option before.
And yeah I found out too that the website can be another beast altogether. I can't remember the amount of times I have to guess if it was going to get me a OLCI BP or not. CX really should fix it
