1-Will need to check 1 bag. That is free on QF trans-pac flight, but what about the JQ flight?
2-No interline bag check, so have to claim the bag in BNE. Correct?

Flew WLG-AKL-LAX on JetStar and Qantas. JetStar bagcheck was free as it was one ticket and they checked my bag right through to LAX. However, I had to collect a new boarding pass in Auckland as they didn't have the passport check ability.
