Changes to Additional Baggage, Seat Selection and Unaccompanied Minor fees effective 18 April 2024

This may have been missed by the AU audience - on top of the CA QF website the banner has links to new pricing policies for baggage and seat selection.

Main changes I can see are increases to domestic overweight baggage and long haul exit row seats, with a new granular zone based system rather than short/medium/long buckets.

Begins April 18 - could be in line with other changes..?

Some interesting things in there. QF making it clear they want pax to use their channels and NDC for transactions over (more expensive) third parties. I get an AA vibe.

I have suspected this has been in play with recently noted price differentials between, for example, Amex travel and QF online for some fare types.

Also noting the 220 is explicitly not being treated the same as the 717 and gets the higher charges.
