It would be good if anybody can post their experience on this here. To Qantas' credit, the MMB reduces every sector to the lowest common baggage allowance. So for me every single leg PER->SYD->LAX->LAS and then the reverse was all listed in the MMB as 1 x 32kg bag... I only checked one on the...

.. and this is exactly why I started this thread.... from my experience, the MMB is correct... QF rules apply to you (QF first on ticket), so whatever the AA website says about sapphire getting 2 checked bags is irrelevant. If MMB says you get 1 x 32Kg, then that is what you will get. Qantas'...

As for.... "As for the bag flyingwithout you it’s not that much of a security breach, you had every intention of flying with your bag and may even have preferred it." ... definitely not my preference.... because of the way it happened, nobody could locate my bag until I arrived in Sydney (at...

People need to be careful how they interpret this rule. In my case QF was the first ticketed flight (and most significant carrier) and so Qantas Rules DID APPLY. The issue is that Qantas rules are to defer to this supposed agreement they have with American Airlines. I.e. The whole 32Kg x 1 Bag...

Just thought I would provide a follow up on this with some information people may find useful. Upon arrival to LAS, I decided to wander across to the departure side of the terminal and have a chat with the American Airlines checkin staff to see what my options were (so I knew what I would be in...

Yes, this is pretty much my understanding. I am silver (so ruby in oneworld) and so I "get" why it is 1 x 32Kg based on the new AA rules. I've read through everything to catch up on what's changed and I understand why it is like this. I have travelled before and previously been in a party where...

Hi, Thanks, but pardon my ignorance, what is MMB? My first interpretation was as you suggest, but I am seeing conflicting information being: 1. My E-Ticket has a table that says I get 3 x 23Kgs (not sure why 23kg and not 32kg) 2. Logging into qantas.com and going to the trip and viewing...

So I just booked a return flight from SYD->LAX->LAS->LAX->SYD for the first time in 3 years. It would seem that in March 2021, Qantas updated the baggage allowance for USA trips. At first this seemed awesome because my frequent flyer status appeared to indicate I would now get 3 checked...

Does anybody in the points club know if you also get additional status credits for using points to upgrade a purchased fare from economy to business and if so, whether you would get DSC for any such status if on an edible flight for this promotion? I suspect it is only classic rewards seats that...

Has anybody who had their status extended from either 31 March or 30 April from booking a flight had their status extension rescinded through cancelling the booked flight? I had booked one to New Zealand, need to change dates, but am wondering whether if I book a new one (to get current DSC...
