Are any of these flights award flights?

That award flight exception is incredible! My first sector SYD-ADL is an award ticket!

Just an update.....armed with screenshots of the above link saying exemptions apply to partial award ticket itineraries I approached a very nice lady at the Qantas service desk in SYD to see if she'd check my bag through to DOH via ADL. She called over a supervisor who had a look and made a call. The supervisor said this is now out of date information on the website and thanked me for bringing it to my attention and said she would contact the relevant department to have the information on that web link updated.

Yes sorry I wasn't more clear. I explained that I had two separate PNR's however the first PNR for SYD-ADL was a redemption ticket and I showed the screenshots about the exclusion for redemption tickets. The check in agent called over a supervisor who made a phone call and said that that exclusion no longer applies and the info on the website is now outdated.
My bag was only checked as far as ADL.
It was no major deal. The main reason I wanted it checked through to DOH was I had built in extra buffer time at ADL knowing I was on a separate PNR ADL-DOH so had around six hours at ADL airport. If my bag could have been checked through to DOH I would have landed in ADL and jumped in a taxi and had a look around the city for a couple hours. Eh ho.

Have SYD-ADL booked on a Qantas award ticket and then fly through with QR to DOH and Europe on a seperate ticket.
I'm flying out next month and already had printed off a copy of that internal memo on interlining and exceptions. Has anyone had more luck with checking through luggage by Qantas departing from SYD recently?
