Last year my wife and I flew out to SYD on QF in F and back on BA also in F--tickets bought
on ba.com. As near as I can recall, when we arrived at LHR for the QF flight there were no
issues concerning the amount of luggage we had. But, I cannot remember if we exceeded 23kg
and we only checked in three bags. (Even for our flight to AKL, three days later, QF accepted
everything without question. As now, I was Silver.)
