Checking in Domestic Leg connecting to International?

[RSD]

I'm having a seniors moment - checking in tomorrow morning on a QF domestic MEL-SYD connecting to QF International flight from SYD to Manila - I presume that for the domestic leg where my bags will be checked all the way to Manila I only need to be checked in about an hour before the domestic leg takes off? Really bad seniors moment....

There's a dedicated international connections check-in desk. You have to check-in at least 45 minutes before departure (recommended 60 minutes).

You won't see your bags again until Manila.

Cheers Opusman - I used to do it all the time going to DFW via SYD but just having one of those senior's moments...

If you have status i have never had any issues using the premium service desk rather than the international connections desk in SYD. They even gave me an express pass.
