Virgin Australia flights to Doha now on sale

[henrus]

Has anyone booked Virgin Economy Reward seats and know what the baggage allowance is? I'm looking to book Sydney to Paris.

Qatar flight number means Qatar allowance applies. In economy this should be 30kg per person (no limit on pieces) but do note that whilst oneworld status adds to this Velocity status does not.

There are a number of Economy classes though - Classic, Convenience and Comfort, which are not all 30kg allowance

Partner Reward seats don’t match to any of those you’ve listed hence the 30kg in economy applies. I’ve done a few reward seats recently on QR metal but booked via VA and had the 30kg.

What's the best way to check once I've bought the ticket? Is the 30kg specified on the ticket/confirmation?

I just spoke to someone at Virgin and they told me it was 23kg...

This is what I see when I check my QR booking for what I booked through VA. It’s the same for all 4 flights.

Are these Virgin Economy Rewards seats?

VA ticket will confirm. I had some last year that were 30kg but if more recent reports are suggesting 25kg then that’s a downgrade.

No. Revenue ones.

If I fly Virgin (operated by QR) and then connect to a QR flight, do you think they would check my bag all the way through?
