    Store bags in lounge and max transit domestically for bags

    So I have two quick simple questions. 1) Is there a facility to store hand luggage at the Qantas Business Lounge in Sydney? 2) We arrive in SYD at 10:25AM, but don't depart till 4:00PM. Can I assume that the checked baggage will automatically be placed onto the next flight? It's on the same...

Unfortunately, the online booking system doesn't show those flights as it tries to...

    Qantas begins selling flights to DXB

    So not sure whether this is new, but I noticed that Qantas now offer flights direct to Dubai as the final destination. Didn't think this was approved yet as they could only go via Dubai as a stop over to LHR etc. Only noticed this today on their home page.

    Increased Baggage Allowance for QF Gold

    Not sure whether this had already been mentioned, but I noticed today that those with Gold status now can take 2 x 32kg instead of the previous 2 x 23kg, domestically. So now it's equivalent to Platinum and better than QP. :) From the Qantas site when you try doing a booking... "For Gold...
