9W Baggage Interlining

Does anybody know if Jet Airways has a baggage interlining agreement with Sri Lankan and Thai Airways? I got a 9W BRU-BOM and a UL BOM-CMB a few hours later and on the return a TG BKK-BOM/9W BOM-BRU and it would be easier not to immigrate into India to collect my luggage

If they are on the same ticket - yes. If not - well, the agent could tag them on but you'd be in for some fun if your bags didnt reach you.

both are interlining partners of 9w, so I'd assume no problem!

Fine, thanks for that information.
Got enough time for connecting in BOM and I'm hoping my luggage will get through

Yeah, 22:00 to 03:20 from 9W to UL and 22:00 to 02:10 on the return journey from TG to 9W.
All flights are on different tickets.

Thats not very desirable...
Make sure you carry the details of all the tickets (PNR, eticket number, etc).
So the interlining can be done. You are somewhat at the mercy of the originating airline....however, most of the time, airlines do agree to interline bags as long as they have an agreement with the next carrier.

9W Baggage Interlining

Hi I am new to interlining and am not sure how the same works. I am planning a holiday with friends to Bangkok and we plan to spend a week at the beach maybe Krabi or Koh Samui, although jetairways website shows Bangkok airways and Thai airways as interlining and Eticket partners I can't seem to find the destinations while booking am I missing something or am I supposed to buy two different tickets in different airlines assuming they would tag the baggage to the end destination.

Any help is appreciated.

As I understand, there are bilateral interline agreements and mult-lateral interline agreements, which are entirely different from code-share agreements.
Any airline that's a signatory to MITA will/should interline with anyother airline that's also a signatory to MITA. An airline does not have to sign agreements with every airline it wishes to interline with. Signing on to MITA automatically results in interlining agreement with all MITA signatories.

Strictly speaking, if you have separate tickets, MITA does not apply, unless the two tickets have been conjuncted.

I would like to hear from those with more knowledge of rules than I have.

Quick question.. I'm flying PEK-HKG-BOM-GOI next week.

PEK-HKG is on CX and HKG-BOM-GOI on 9W. Will my bags go through from PEK to GOI or will I need to re-check them in at HKG.

I'm a 9W Plat and all segments are in J.

If same itinerary, no problem, bags checked thru to BOM. If on different itineraries, give your 9W itin to the CX agent at PEK and they should be able to interline them no problem.

That's a perfect summary of MITA and the provisions. I have a copy of the manual, but unfortunately am not allowed to paste the section because of legal reasons (it's a purchase-restricted document). Either way, joining the agreement links the airline in question to the other 350 members of the group. Furthermore, the tickets do need to be the same in order for the automatic procedures to kick in.
