CX to UA MCT
DEL-HKG on CX694 arriving 09:10 22DEC
HKG-SFO on UA862 on departing 11:00 22DEC
They are separate tickets. Does this meet the MCT for CX/UA? Would also like to confirm that my baggage will be checked all the way through to SFO. Found a Cathay IATCI document that said they should be able to check in for UA at all stations. Thanks!

Yes, Cathay will check bags through and that is masses of time for the connection assuming no delays on the inbound. MCT is something like 60 mins.
