As I understand it, DJ will interline onto Rex and selected Internationals, as rex interlines to most but not QF International. Checkin is not an option for seat allocation on either carrier beyond their own services.

I still hold that seat allocation is not that hard, and with lounge allocation, one seat chart can be used with the old fashioned seat stickers.

Makes the punters much happier.

Thanks - but one small caution. If one is loading an aeroplane with a rearward c of g, one must ensure that the initial baggage/freight load is into the forward lockers to avoid an embarrasing "sit on arse" incident on the ramp. Not hard - just simple and procedural. F27-500's were famous for it and nearly copped one at DPO on a 200 series (VH-TFL) due to flight attendants trying to reinvent the wheel by reallocating and causing a backup in the rear entry.

Best regards
