Apologies if this question has been answered previously.

I have a SQ flight booked for November through a TA. The TA has added my Velocity account to this booking. I just logged in to check on a domestic QF flight and noticed that the SQ flight can be seen via my QFF account with my Velocity number attached.

Any idea how QF got this information?
 
QFF number must be attached to the booking somehow.

I would imagine it is more to do with the booking system the TA is using.

OP, I’m assuming the QF and SQ flights are seperate bookings?

SQ and QF are both on Amadeus, so if the QFF number was attached somewhere (booking level, flight level?) it might appear in the QFF account that way

Although I did think Qantas were stopping them from showing.
 
Does the TA use Amadeus? Sounds like the SQ and QF flights are in the same Amadeus pnr, assuming the QF domestic flight was also booked through the same TA.

If your QF flight is on the same day as the SQ ones, chances are that QF will see the SQ oncarriage flights which means they would automatically tag bags to your final SQ destination and be able to issue the SQ boarding passes as well as I believe QF & SQ have an IATCI agreement.

Even if the TA issued an 081 ticket for the QF dom sector then a 618 ticket for the SQ flights, it would look the same as when all flights are booked on a single ticket so the the checkin staff would presume it was the latter.

Are they booked as a single booking? Not uncommon for the airlines to know about a connecting flight before or after the actual flight of that airline.
