Qantas outlines comprehensive baggage policies for domestic and international travelers

Qantas Airways offers its passengers a variety of baggage allowances, which vary based on the class of travel and frequent flyer status. Notably, all Qantas passengers are entitled to free checked baggage, a policy that stands out in an industry where many airlines charge for this service.

For domestic flights within Australia, Qantas allows economy class passengers who are not loyalty members or only have Bronze status to check one bag weighing up to 23 kg. This allowance increases for higher-tier members, with Gold, Platinum, and Platinum One Frequent Flyers allowed two bags of up to 32 kg each. Premium economy and business class travelers enjoy even more generous allowances.

On international routes, Qantas determines baggage allowances by weight rather than the number of pieces. Passengers transferring between domestic and international flights on the same day can benefit from the international baggage allowance for both segments. However, no single bag can exceed 32 kg in weight.
