Quantas _ Carry On Allowance, Int'l Economy

Hopefully I posted in the right location. Can someone give me information on allowance for carry on flying from the United States to Australia (Economy).
I can not tell if one or two items are allowed. I have two small bags both under 15 pounds but now I am thinking I am allowed only one.

Thank you.

That is what I thought too but their reply to SMS was:
Carry on baggage of 7kg per person which can be divided into two pieces. Make sure that your carry-on baggage will not exceed the required allowance as if this will exceed, the airport staff will advise you to unpack this.
With that said, I cannot imagine I would be able to pack for 2 1/2 weeks with 15 pounds.

You have a checked in luggage allowance with your QF ticket. Just check-in 1 bag for the international flight.

If you can’t pack for 2 weeks with a 7 kg carry on bag, then simply check a bag. Checked bags are free on QF. It does make life (and boarding) easier.

oh, and QANATS does not have a “U” in it.
