Connecting flight diffrent carrier

Post by danny02 »

hi, i booked my flight British Airways, toronto to abu dhabi. I want to take a connecting PIA flight from abu dhabi airport to lahore. Is it possible to book my luggage through out the whole journey even though i am changing airlines at abu dhabi airport.
If not can i book my luggage till abu dhabi and collect it at abu dhabi airport without going through immigration?

hey danny,

if all BA and PIA sectors are on one ticket you can thru check your bags all the way. However if you are staying the night in AUH or you have separate tickets then you must collect bags in AUH and then recheckin for your LHE flt. hope this helps !

Baggage claim is after immigration so you must complete immigration if claiming bags in Abu Dhabi.

the thing is that i got e-tickets seperately so its not on the same ticket. I guess i will just carry a hand luggage with me so i dont have to go through immigration and on my way back i can transit at abu dhabi cauz i will have more luggage.
