transferring between IT an AY in DEL T3
 

This is the part of the itinirery that is from delhi
I am flying this route by myself -
IT2313 - Jaipur (India) 19.20 to Delhi (India) 20.20 (codeshare with finnair)
Overnight in Delhi = i like checking in early, so i guess checkin at 5am?
AY22 - Delhi - Helsinki 10:20 15:10
In general I like spending time in airports and airplanes, and I do like delhi airport, and am familiar with it.
My main question is this:
Can I check my bags in, and get a Boarding pass for all the segments on the Finnair ticket? does kingfisher put me in a hotel? this is all one one ticket.

My thought was - if I am just transferring from the domestic side of T3 to International - I dont have to leave the airport, and I can hopefully sleep overnight in those chair/bed things at the gates? (i saw them a couple of times)
I have flown From/to Delhi T3 and before T2 a bunch of times, but this is my first time transitting
If not, what do you suggest I do? I am travelling on this trip alone, and I am pretty hard to wake up (i dont wake up to a alarm clock - at home I wake up at 6am every day myself, so i can prob wake up till then at the airport BUT if I leave the airport to go to a friends house, I may miss the flight if i only wake up at 6. I like to check in as early as posibble? (so i can try to grab the bulkhead seat)
I have flown from/to DEL T3 a couple of times already, but never transitted

bump.. please comment

are you on a single pnr????if yes then it might be possible to check you in all the way but in all probability you will have to collect your bags at del & check them in again for your international flight....

kingfisher will not put you up in a hotel....

since your flight is around 10 in the morning, you will probably not be able to check in for your flight till 6:30 or 7 in the morning....

the airport hotel is now open so you may want to consider checking that out....

woudnt the hotel cost 300 rupees a hour?
also as i understand it, the transit hotel is after checkin - will they allow me 10 houors before the flight to get in the airport?
i dont want to leave the airport and sleep somewhere else

yes btw - one pnr
Finnair codeshare with IT
JAI-DEL flight is IT metal, AY ticket
rest is AY metal, AY ticket 0 all on one pnr

if you are on one pnr then the chances are that you can check yourself all the way through to your final destination....that way you can enter the departure area at any point & can use either the hotel or one of their sleeping pods....hoever, if they do not allow you to check-in all the way through then the earliest you can enter the departure area is about 3 & a half hours before your flight....

You dont think if i show my ticket, and explain my situation to the security guard he'll let me in (if im not checked in all the way from jaipur)?
I do know hindi. I'm 15 and travelling alone
btw if agar jaanna chahte ho, US me janm liya that - tab se india me rehta hun.. Live in Govardhana - 130km from Delhi

i'm afraid not....they are pretty strict about this....they usually don't let people in about 4-5 hours before the flight....

If you have a ticket or an e-icket receipt print out, you can enter the arrivals area where there are some eating places. Enter via gate number 8. After going past the counter, turn right and you will see an elevator. There will be a guard sitting there to check your ticket. Show him your ticket and take the elevator down to the arrivals hall. That's as far as you can go until it's time to check -in.

Last time I was on transit SIN-DEL-FRA, arriving Delhi at 5am and departing for Frankfurt at 3am they did refuse through check-in citing that it can only be done in Delhi if the onward departure is within 4 hours. So you may be out of luck

you had almost a full day between your flights....i'm not surprised they refused....but i know a bunch of people who have got through check-in even though they had a 8-10 hour layover....

I guess they r not doing this since there may be Jaipur - Delhi flights early morning enabling pax to take the FIN connection at 10:20..

To the OP -- check with KF on this IF ur Jaipur - DEL connection is the last one within the MCT ..

btw no earlier connection. And according to IT they do have a interline agreement with AY.

There are no earlier flights from JAI-DEL that arrive before 8-9am...
This was the only choice to fly from JAI

correction. on one more look there is a early 7am flight that is much more exppensive.
still, does anybody have any idea?
