The boarding cards will usually only come out if it's an airline in the same alliance as us or one with which we codeshare or interline with.
Awesome, this is just what I was looking to find out.
I'm assuming if we check in online for the final leg of the journey, it won't matter whether or not a boarding card is issued at the check-in desk since we'll have printed it out at home first anyway?
Otherwise, if it will be necessary to see the check-in agent in DUB, how will we know? If the bags are checked through to CFN and we have checked-in for that leg online already, can we not proceed directly to the boarding gate in DUB? Correct me if wrong!
Finally, other posters mentioned interline agreements between the airlines. From what I can garner from their websites there is an agreement in place, but there seems to be ambiguity when it comes to separate tickets as to what will be permitted. I guess I will have to wait and see. The most important thing for me is that I'm told for certain whether I need to collect bags in DUB, preferably before I arrive empty-handed in CFN
