IT LHR Questions
 
Hi,
will be flying on the 14th October with Kingfisher to KTM. Booked the trip via ebookers but got two booking numbers (one from BA, one from IT)

Flights are

BA919 STR-LHR (T5) Arriving at 12:45 in London
IT 02 LHR - DEL (T4) Departing at 21:04 from London

Fallow questions:

1. Will BA queck my bag trough to DEL? Know I will need to re-check the bag at DEL for the KTM Leg.

2. Will I get my boarding pass already in STR or will I need to go to the transfer desk at T5 for that?

-> Did thought of using my layover for a short trip via Heathrow Express in the city to catch up with friends and for my fave Brownie.

3. How long should I be arriving before departure at T4? Never flown out there and did hear some horrible story about boarding with IT.

4. Any more hints about flying with IT? Anything to take care of before?

Thanks

Tina

there are often different booking numbers for different airlines but do you have a single pnr which pulls up both reservations????

if on a single pnr then your bag will be checked to del....make sure you have a visa for india otherwise you will not be able to check your bags in del....some people have reported being able to do so at the transfer desk....what airline are you flying del-ktm????

;Phone up and get seats assigned for Kingfisher.

My preference would be:

In Y, go for the aisle seat in the middle 4.

In J, go for the aisle seat in the middle 2.
