The airside bus is a courtesy to Qantas passengers, and presumably paid for by Qantas. A true Qantas pax shouldn't need to visit Landside.
Different situation, but I might have to fly QF CBR-SYD on a Crash8, and I will need to check my normal carry-on bag until SYD, where I continue on an Int'l QF connection on the same PNR. If I want to have my carry-on along with me on the long flight, I have to go landside to pick it up, right? Can I go back airside to transfer to Int'l, or do I have to take the landside bus? That would slow things down considerably...
