Thanks for your help. It's strange that the chauffeur drive collects so much earlier and you can check in 24 hours before but can not drop luggage. I thought after they trialled all day bag drops in Sydney it may have improved. 

Baggage drop Qantas International in Melbourne. Can anyone advise if you can drop baggage 5 hours before the flight if you have checked in online? Qantas advise airport checking opens 3 hours before flight.

Hi, hoping someone can advise. When flying Qantas International , having checked in on line, can you baggage drop 5 hours before your flight?
