Please let us know how it works out.

Thanks Mwenezi
Yes, I have a Smartgate passport.
What happens in a scenario where AC33 lands on time but then it takes 2 hours to get from T1 to T3 (including collecting bags, getting through customs, transiting to T1) so I miss the boarding time for my domestic flight. Is that still QF’s problem? Will I automatically be entitled to be put on the next available flight to Melbourne?
I’ll be arriving in SYD after a long multi-leg journey from central Canada so I’m really not looking forward to this Sydney airport T1 to T3 transfer.
