This is apparently true for all countries not just Australia.
The trivia you pick up flying ...

i also have different passports from 3 countries. i stored them all on my UA profile. before checking in, UA will ask me which passport i want to use. never had an issue. of course i never tried selecting the *wrong* passport (like a non-US one for return flights to the US), but that's another story and as long as you store them all and select the correct one, even if they are about to expire, you should be fine. safe travels!

So to followup on this. I took people's advise and entered both passports into UA.com.
When it came time to check in, it asked me which passport to use. If you choose the Australian one you can check in online. Thanks for your help

Good question. My experience was going LAX-MEL. Going MEL-LAX I could *not* do OLCI. The agent said they needed to see passports.

You should just be able to choose which passport to fly on when checking in for that international travel day.
BTW, Happy Australia Day, mate.

I got randomly picked at one point last year for additional screening (SSSS) and the was the only time I could not do online checkin in the last 4 years
Ive had both passports in my profile for ages and never an issue, just pick the right one
About once a year I can dump the presentation luggage with a workmate and go strait off the train into the customs hall (always have some spare express passes)
