It sounds like jetstar is applying its own allowance which would seem to be 20Kg; what matters is what it says on the jetstar booking info

It would sound like your best bet would be to change your ADL-SYD flight to a Qantas one

Is that right?? wow, what can i do? Pay $24 and take 6kg less, or change the flight and lose a whole lot more points ive been saving for the best part of 10 years...

If qantas are saying its 2 pieces on my itinerary and i show that to jetstar, what will they do? If they say no and i dont buy the extra baggage now, then im going to have one hell of an excess baggage fee!
