Malaysia Airlines Early Check In at KUL (QR Codeshare)

[Chrizztofa]

Hi All,

Would anybody be able to confirm whether it is possible to check in early for a MH-operated flight sold as a QR codeshare? We are arriving into KUL on a separate (non-oneworld) ticket around 12 hours before the MH/QR flight, so expect to need to collect our bags and check in again.

We should be able to check in online 48 hours before the flight, so having a boarding pass should not be an issue. MH seem to offer all day bag drop (see here), but it's not clear if that would work if the flight is technically on a QR flight number.

If it is not possible, we'd probably book a day room for a few hours at an airport hotel.

Would appreciate any insights / experiences. Cheers.

Generally the.operating airline is who you check in with, OLCI or otherwise. I haven't checked bags with MH so can't advise on what's available at KUL.

At worst you could head to sentral on the espress and use in town check in there.

You could then look around KL for an hour or two before heading back.

You can get a return for MYR90 using the Espres app.
