Cathay Pacific connecting to other airlines

Upon arrival, all transit passengers must proceed to the International Arrival Facility (IAF) baggage claim area to collect their checked baggage, even if it has been tagged through to the final destination.

After collecting their baggage, passengers should proceed to passport control. Once clearance is completed, follow the righthand corridor to recheck baggage at the designated baggage conveyor belt, undergo security screening, and then proceed to the departure gate for the connecting flight.
