I’ve booked a classic rewards economy flight with Emirates (EK ticket) SYD / DXB /CPH. I have Qantas Silver status. Ticketed baggage allowance says only 25kg. From the Qantas website, it says I should get 42kg as silver. The silver page on Qantas says that silver members “Receive additional checked baggage allowance of up to 12kg”. Emirates website doesn’t provide much info at all. Can anyone confirm if I get 25kg, 37kg or 42kg?

42kg refers to QF flights

Emirates offers its own silver members +12kg so that would align to the QF silver page
