Cluj connecting airport, 2 separate tickets from same site, same airline, 1 hour between flights enough? [closed] - Closeup of red metal bottle cap placed on glass bottle with water droplets on white background
  • Travelling from Larnaca (Cyprus)->Cluj (Romania) then from Cluj->London.

  • I have two separate tickets (same airline, bought through WIZZ) and only 1 hour between arrival and departure.

  • I have EU passport and all countries involved are in EU (for the time being!).

  • I do not have any checked-in luggage, I only have a shoulder bag.

  • WIZZ's punctuality the last week regarding this particular flight from Larnaca seem OK.

  • Scheduled arrival in Cluj at 19:00 on a Monday.

Is 70 minutes adequate time to catch my connecting flight ? (from touchdown to gate closing)?

Is 1 hour long enough for connecting flights?

As a rule of thumb, on domestic routes, you need a minimum of 45 minutes between flights. That's because you don't have to go through security, customs, and immigration.

Can I book two separate connecting flights?

There are two different types of connecting flights. There are those that are included as one route on your ticket and scheduled by the airline or OTA, and then there those which you plan yourself and book separately, known as self-connecting flights.

Do I have to check in separately for connecting flights?

When arriving at the connecting airport all you have to do is to go to your next gate and wait for the next plane, your next flight. There might be a security check in the terminal at the connecting airport. But mostly you don't have to do anything about your luggage. It's being taken care of by the airport personnel.

Do you need a second ticket for a connecting flight?

A: It depends, but the general rule is NO. Some airlines will through check baggage onto separately ticketed flights, but some won't (even if both tickets are with the same airline). Some airlines will take pity if your delay is due to them, but others don't.
