Leaving HKT bound for London

[London Lowf]

My homeward flight is HKT-BKK-LHR.

 

Pre-Covid I would go to the International Terminal at Phuket and do all of the formalities there and get my boarding cards for the whole journey.

 

However, last March I had to walk to Domestic Terminal and check-in there and then on arrival at Bangkok I had to pick up my hold luggage, check in again for my London flight and do emigration there. A pain!

 

Can anyone tell me the current procedure?

 

Cheers.

Great - thanks!

But still it appears that you have to check-in at domestic terminal.

 

Maybe it depends on the airline but, for my next flight HKT-BKK-HAN, both with Thai/ThaiSmile I have been told to go to the domestic.

My flights yesterday were Thai Smile plus Thai Airways. My ticket said Domestic terminal but when I tried to check in there they redirected me to International - not a big deal as it's only a five minute walk. Once checked in I just did a straightforward CIQ transit in BKK.
