QF-CX DOM-INT transit luggage [at BNE]
 

I've got SYD-BNE on QF and BNE-HKG on CX, separate booking.
Does QF do DOM-INT luggage transfer or I has to claim baggage at BNE and re check in?

No OW transfer on separate reservation. Claim and check in with CX.

Thanks. So it seems I will need to allow extra time between connection.

I do remember BNE has separate terminal building for DOM and INT, which a shuttle bus was needed, am I right?

Yes: physically separate terminals, but not as bad as SYD.

Click on "transfer information" http://www.bne.com.au/passenger-information
"Brisbane Airport’s Terminals are located 4KM from each other. There are a variety of options for transferring between terminals including"

And look here https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/ocea...transport.html

Unless one is an award and the other a commercial/paid booking (in theory they have stated they will allow transfers between these types of bookings).

Really?

The QF leg between SYD-BNE will be reward booking using MPC points (I could use QF points if that will help with transfer) and the CX leg BNE-HKG will be a paid ticket.


If it's physically separated terminals, how could it be better than SYD?

Its an easier walk if you choose to do so.

Maybe, maybe not. There is documentation indicating that this is a policy. There is no guarantee though that the agent checking you in will do this ....
