Check in all the way to ARN? 2 tickets

[Christina L]

We are flying ARN-LHR-SIN-SYD return.

ARN-LHR return is on one ticket, bought via SAS webpage.

LHR-SIN-SYD return is with SQ on another ticket bought via a travel agent in th UK.

What happens when we check in in SYD to fly back to ARN;

Will the staff agree to check our luggage in all the way up to ARN (so we dont have to collect at LHR and check it in again) ?

What airline are you flying SYD-LHR with?

Some will not check you thropugh if it is not on the same ticket (ie Air NZ, BMI etc)

Oh, sorry, should have mentioned, its SQ LHR-SIN-SYD return and SAS ARN-LHR return.

You'll have to check it in again in LHR... If it were all on the same ticket you may have stood a better chance...

But your bags may be checked all the way thru, that’s what transfer desks at airports are for

Ensure at Stockholm Airport you show them both tickets, and get them to tag the bags to Sydney

Agree you will not get the LHR-SYD boarding pass till you get to LHR transfer desk.

This is what we are hoping for, that they will check our bags in all the way through.
I understand that they might not check us in, so we need to get new boarding cards at a transfer desk in LHR.

The key here is they MAY check the bags through.

They are under no obligation to do so. I'm not sure of SQ or SAS's policy, but it may also depend on the agent on the day.
