So I responded "But you are checking in my bags, so what is the allowance as a BA employee will check them in, not a QF one". The response was "Please check with Qantas".....
Your ticketed allowance applies, and the BA baggage website is quite clear regarding other carrier allowances. You have just confused the issue with wanting the extra allowance that BA provides to oneworld Sapphire, and that Qantas does not officially give additional allowance to non-Qantas oneworld Sapphires.
