Interlining CX to CX
 
Hello All:

I am helping my family out on a CX flight from BKK to JFK. I already have 1 in Biz all the way through, however due to October holidays I am unable to get 1 seat BKK to HKG....Already have the CX HKG to JFK in Biz for second pax......

IF I buy a one way from BKK to HKG on cx directly.......Will CX interline the bags with our existing HKG-JFK Aadvantage award ticket on CX?

Thanks in advance, my family is older and moving luggage is not an option etc.

There is no problem interlining baggage CX to CX even on separate tickets.

It's not interlining if both flights are operated by the same airline.

The OW rules say no but my understanding is that CX says nonsense to that and they allow it. As long as you have not allowed too little time for the change of planes, HKG for a J passenger is going to deliver the bag quick (faster than you can get through even a short immigration queue) and even having to go through formalities in and out of HKG it all could be done in under an hour.

It would not be interlining if the line is the same airline. Interline would be to a different OW or non OW airline, inter being between and line being airlines.

Worse comes to worst put all the bags on the through ticket BKK-HKG-JFK.

I've done it many times.

Also you said you can't find a seat... did you call or are you looking online? There may be no seats available online, but it's worth to give reservations a call.
