I will have 2 seperate tickets, but the reason for that is a less than efficient admin. in our travel department who books my travel, together with a need to combine private and business travel.
Is this really a BA rule not to check my bag all the way through? last year I flew CGN - LHR with LH, and then on to MEL with BA. bags were checked all the way through even though this was on 2 seperate tickets - thus this should be possible!?!
