Before you book
- 2 separate tickets. Each stands on its own: if one is delayed, changed or cancelled, the airline on the other ticket doesn’t have to rebook or help you. Bags and check-in are handled ticket by ticket.
- Separate tickets, self-transfer: if the economy flights are delayed or cancelled, the business ticket is not protected or rebooked for you.
- Long outbound wait of about 23h in Manila; may include an overnight, so consider a hotel or transit stay.
- Long return wait of about 8h in Manila; may include an overnight, so consider a hotel or transit stay.
- Bags are not carried through: collect and re-check them in Manila; allowances differ per ticket.
- The business ticket has a long layover of about 12h in Bahrain (outbound). Check whether you need a hotel or a transit visa there.
- 2027 times are from standing schedules and may change: confirm times at booking and recheck connections.
- Schengen area: check EES/ETIAS entry requirements for Australian passport holders at time of travel.
- Check entry and transit rules for every stop for your passport.
Hack Shield
Needs careOvernight wait (22 h 45 min) · Long wait (8 h 10 min) · Re-check bags · Entry rules: Philippines
These are separate tickets. If your first flight is late, the airline on the next ticket generally doesn't have to rebook you.
6 more checks are summarised above but not explained here. The full Hack Shield checklist, with bags, entry rules, waits and what to do if your first flight is late, is part of Pro.
Hack Shield is general information based on the flight times we hold. It is not a guarantee, travel advice or insurance, and Kaviqa does not check visa or entry rules for you.
