I just found out that even though technically I'm flying around the world, it isn't a RTW fare, and therefore up to FRA the ticket says PC and from then on it says 20K. How strict will QF in JNB be? I'm flying around the world, but from segment to segment I go from 2 pieces 32kg each (=64kg) to 20kg. What am I supposed to do? Leave 3/4 of my luggage in Europe? Do they have any knowledge of RTW tickets in that I could try to convince them that it should be 2PC, or will they go exactly according to the ticket?
Any advice? Thanks
goodo

If the tiecket is on the same reservation code than the 2 pc rule should prevail. I would go the TA and have him change the allowance on the ticket.
If it is two seperate tickets, than you might be screwed, and should have bought a YRTWSTAR1..But I guess the agent might be helpful in the end .
