Connecting in HKG with different alliance
Hello. Quick question. I'm connecting through Hong Kong on a short connect time with different alliances. Arriving on Cathay from MLE at 7:45am and then connecting to Air Japan (ANA) to NRT at 9:40am on different itineraries. all in business class. My questions are:
1) Will Cathay transfer the bags to Air Japan?
2) Will there be enough time to transit? (Especially if I have to pick up
luggage and recheck in to ANA)
Thnx.

There's a reason why this is in the Wiki at the top of the page ...

Air Japan is not ANA. That's ALL NIPPON AIRWAYS and their code is NH. So look at the chart above and see if there're there.. (answer yes).

Can I check my baggage through when connecting to another airline (Interline)?
I'm connecting from CX / KA to xxxx airlines. Will they check my bag through?
CX/KA has interline agreements with the following airlines. This means that baggage may be checked through to final destination if travelling on same or seperate tickets. CX has no control , however at airports that do not allow overnight storage/connection of flights even if through check-in is availble. CX will advise you of this when checking in. Note that unless its on the same ticket, CX generally cannot issue you onward boarding passes. This is the same whether its a Oneworld alliance or not.
