With cash FJ ticket on FJ BNE-NAN and then QF award on FJ NAN-DFW you will be subject to FJ t&c's for interlining bags on separate tickets. Nothing to do with Qantas or Oneworld. For OW airlines each have there own rules for interlining.

I cannot find what FJ's rules are for interlining bags on separate tickets.
You couldld try to phone FJ, but phone agents (for any airline) often say no to be safe.

Whilst this isn't any official policy, generally speaking most full service airlines transiting through their main hub are quite likely to accomodate you, however you do need to let them know at your first check in that you have another flight booked with them. Often they'll do all your stuff with check in/boarding pass etc for your second flight too. You can also try flyertalk forums to see if there are other people that have used FJ in such a manner.

Urg, I have a similar situation with QF (reward) and QR (paid). I thought I'd be able to get away with it because they are both OWA so I'm glad I read this thread.

Hopefully QF's policy to check through to other OWA where there is a mix of paid and reward flights will carry given I'm flying with them first. https://www.qantas.com/agencyconnec...on/interline-and-through-checked-baggage.html

Yes, but you have to find an agent who is able to through check the bags on separate tickets… that’s becoming a little more difficult given some of the reports in other threads.

Policy says ‘yes’, but practical limitations can thwart that.
