  • BKK Transit - Arriving SQ J, connecting to TG F

    Hi,

    Missus is flying back to UK tomorrow for a few weeks.

    She is booked on SQ J for SIN-BKK, and connecting to TG F (both flights under one booking/PNR)

    Couple of questions:

    Will she need to go to the transfer desk in BKK to pick up BKK-LHR boarding pass, or will they issue in the lounge? Or will SQ issue it in Singapore?

    Will a buggy come to collect her from the SQ arrival gate and escort her through security etc?

    Thanks

    J

    From the two or three times I've travelled with that type of connection, the TG F BP gets printed in SIN on SQ F BP stock, and there is a buggy to pick you up upon arrival and ferry you to the BKK F lounge. No need to stop at the transfer desk.

      There should be a buggy there, presuming it's on one ticket and the flights are not a long time apart such as arriving in the morning and departing on one of the late night bank of flights to Europe. However, like many things TG, it can be hit and miss.

        Thanks for the info guys!

        As it turned out, there was no buggy to pick her up at the gate and she had to get the TG F BP from the transfer desk.

        No big deal though ..... she was off the plane and in the TG F lounge within 10 mins!

            TG treats her F paxs very well, ensuring that there is no need to wait in line, everything is done such that you are First and the rest behind you..... and the F lounge is really comfortable, almost 1 to 1 service staff, come running immediately when you signal and very very polite and speaks excellent English.....

              I think its a big deal that it had to be so troublesome especially for a F pax.

              Like milehighj, surprised that SQ could not provide connecting BP Ex-SIN.

                Nope, they told her to go to the transfer desk. Fortunately it was early on Saturday morning so it was very fast but can imagine it would be a problem if much busier.

                I was more annoyed there was no buggy to pick her up

                  Hi all,

                  Another question related to this. This time I am arriving in TG F from London and connecting to SQ J. Will i still be able to use the TG F lounge whilst in transit or will i be directed to the silverkris lounge.

                  Also, does anyone know if there are printing facilities in the TG F lounge?

                    You're not meant to, but show your BP and chat up the lounge dragons, I've known some pax who've been able to swing it

                        yes, definitely enough time, transfer desk is before you go up the escalator.

                          Be prepared to run, as sometimes the plane may circle a couple of times around Suvarnabhumi before landing, i.e. expect delays.

                          That connection time makes me a little nervous, actually. Any chance they can print out your BP in SIN?
