EY website indicates I do (https://www.etihadguest.com/en/earn-...australia.html) but VA are denying that when I asked CS. If so, is the 1x32Kg bag in addition to the 1x23KG on the domestic ticket already or does the allowance remain as 1 bag and only increase to 32 from 23.

2) Will I be allowed to use complimentary limousine service transfers at SYD, my guess is no since my domestic is in Y. So do I need to make my own way from T1 to T2?
So a separate VA SYD XXX flight after an EY flight AUH SYD? Have you done the SYD T1 T2/T3 shuffle before?

If by "complimentary limousine service transfers at SYD" you mean the VA bus T1 T2 I think you will be eligible, as VA guest on the day. Or an EY limo? [a short ride]. 1000's of people every day fly on VA/QF domestic services after an international flight. Some will be on the same ticket/PNR and others will have separate tickets . You check in for the VA domestic flight in T1 (turn left exiting immigration)
