Transit BKK
 

Hi ,

On 30 sept im travelling from Paris to Ho chi Min. However , i use two different company. EK for CDG - DBX - BKK and then turkish airline from BKK to there.

The question is : do i have to get my luggage in BKK and then check in again with turkish airline in ? or Emirates can arrange this from Paris?
Do i need a special visa in BKK for transit ? i go back there 20days after for a 20 days stop.

I travel in J and have a 4hours stop in BKK.


thx for answers ;)

EK can interline your luggage onto Turkish and onto Ho Chi Min.

You dont need a visa to transit through BKK. Get off the EK and make your way upstaires to the tranfer desks. It will make life easier for you if you have handy your TK e-tkt or boarding pass to show befor you go through security again.

Depending on which countrys passport you a traveling on you will not require a visa for your 20 day stay either as you are given a month visa when you arrive.

And BTW it's DXB not DBX :)

I presume you are French so you will be entitled to the tourist 30 day visa exemption: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visa_policy_of_Thailand http://www.immigration.go.th/nov2004...e.php?page=voa

Very interesting map there. The South Americans seem to have the far better deal. Anything to do with the Priness trip awhile ago?

Ok, Thank u. How to get my lounge access in BKK with TK ? Only with my E-Ticket or i have to ask tk desk there ?

Anybody else got more of a clue on this than me? Maybe someone can help this guy out in the next couple of posts and job done. Otherwise one the the mods maybe move it to the star alliance forum where they should be able to better help.

i ll post this in staralliance forum. thanks for help ^

AFAIK they have a bilateral agreement in place.
