Via HK I've never had a problem.īearing in mind Tiger is a budget airline that charges extra for checked in baggage, I'd be surprised if they were checked right through. I ended up having to go through immigration just to reclaim my bags as Qantas (codesharing - I was actually booked on a BA flight) would not check my bags all the way through to HCMC.



Sometimes even that doesn't mean your bags will be checked through, as I found out when I flew with Qantas via Bangkok with a change to Thai from there to HCMC. Usually bags are only checked through if flying on the same airline or with a partnered airline. As to visa no, not if you're not leaving the transit area, as I don't need a China visa to pass through Hong Kong on my way to Viet Nam. Your bags will be checked through to Sing.
