Interlining Baggages
I'm flying to Changi Airport Singapore from YVR via Hong Kong International Airport and to YVR from Changi via Narita.
Basically my itinerary is like this:
YVR - HKG (Air Canada)
HKG - SIN (Singapore Airlines)
SIN - NRT (All Nippon Airways)
NRT - YVR (AC)
Do I have to claim baggage and recheck in during my connection? My connection times are rather short (2 hours and 1.5 hours respectively) and I'm afraid I may not have enough time to do so. From AC's website, Singapore Airlines and ANA are Star Alliance members so I may not have to do so. Is that true? Has anyone have a similar experience? Thanks!

I've interlined between UA/AC, and US/AC when the flights are on different tickets. I don't think you'll have a problem but make sure you have detailed itinerary with you because the check-in person won't be able to see your later flights so you need to give her exact flight numbers, and times. I know this sounds obvious, but I usually go to the airport expecting them to be able to see everything, so I thought I'd mention it.
