Based on the itinerary, the Most Significant Carrier should be QF - crossing Tariff Conference areas, and also the longest sector.
Is my interpretation accurate, or should I get my arguments ready for the Westjet ticketing desk (with family in tow?)
QF looks to cede baggage allowance to WS as operating carrier, according to this link:
https://www.qantas.com/ca/en/qantas-...-airlines.html See the line that says “Extra checked baggage allowance” and the “X”s indicating it is not available or N/A for Business (where WS allows 2 pieces free). WS has a standard weight limit for a checked bag of 23kg.
