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.
- Self-transfer in Kuala Lumpur of about 10h15 (arrive 15:45, depart 02:00), overnight at the airport.
- Collect and re-check your bags in Kuala Lumpur; you clear Malaysian immigration to do it. Australians get visa-free entry; complete the Malaysia Digital Arrival Card before arrival.
- Doha connection inside ticket 2 is 4h45, protected on one ticket.
- Separate tickets: if the first flight is late or cancelled and you miss the business flight, the second airline does not have to rebook you. Leave the full gap and consider travel insurance that covers missed connections.

These are separate tickets. If your first flight is late, the airline on the next ticket generally doesn't have to rebook you.
4 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.
