Questions about checking-in at BNE International

[goldinthemhills]

I have a few questions in relation to an upcoming BNE to LAX flight that I'm hoping the good folk here might know the answers to:

1. Is there any advantage/reason to do an online check-in given the need to show a check-in agent all my COVID-related paperwork? I will have bags to check-in.
2. I am a QC member flying Economy. Does anyone know if Qantas in BNE International allows QC members to use any priority check-in lines?
3. Same question as above, but in relation to the boarding line?

Thanks!

I have never seen the value of online checkin, I rarely use it, except for seat selection or there is a risk the flight is overbooked.

I could not check in online for my recent BNE-SYD-DFW-MSP flights. I tried, but the option was not available.

1) Even if you check in on line you’ll probably still need to go to a check in desk for document checks as the ita app doesn’t seem to play well with QANTAS. I’d say just do it at the airport.
2) QC in theory does get priority check in. Normally through the PE line but may be through the business line as I don’t think Brisbane has PE operating there. There should be signage or the staff should probably be able to tell you. There’s a similar thread EX Sydney Here.
3) Unless you have status no. You’ll unfortunately need to board through the regular economy queue.
