CX policy on short checking bags to LHR
Have just over 12 hours to connect at LHR after arriving from HKG and departing to GOT later this year.
Would like to grab our bags back during the layover to take to our hotel, does CX have any policy that would prevent this happening?

CX offers very low J fares from Scandinavia with connection in LHR. Some people try to drop the last return segment. Hence, you should assume that CX might be a bit strict on short checking bags if the ticket allows no stopover. Apparently this is not your intent, but you might suffer because all the others.
That being said, I have no personal experience.

Short-checking only becomes an issue when one is ticketed on a connection.
