  • (+1) Would it make any difference if the two flights were with the same airline? Are systems capable of picking up duplicate check-in?

  • Some are, some aren't. Most are protected against duplicate bookings on the same flight but not necessarily at the same time on different flights.

  • @Traveller given the fact that OP would have two different passports with two different names, it would be quite difficult to match the two flights. Even with the same name, there are too many people sharing the same name for them to reject such duplicates. The date of birth info which could help is (at least in theory) usually only for purposes of API/APIS, and I’m pretty sure that there are still many people with the same name and date of birth (especially in China). Finally, why would airlines care? As long as you pay for both tickets…
