Qantas accepts fishing equipment as checked baggage. To be accepted for carriage, they must be protected in a PVC cylinder with screw ends, which can be obtained from a local fishing store, or in PVC plumbing or electrical tubing.

Fishing rods must not be strapped to suitcases and the length can not exceed 277cm (109in) on Qantas operated services. [AMZ asins='B000E3E22A,B008BR23FY,B00YEH5PQO,B00SXZMQTM']

Sporting equipment can be included as part of your checked baggage allowance, subject to the sporting equipment requirements. Charges will apply for any baggage carried in addition to the free allowance. You may purchase an Additional Baggage Allowance in advance to save on airport excess baggage rates. The carriage of baggage over and above the free baggage allowance is subject to space being available.

Note: The maximum weight of any piece of checked baggage is 32kg (70lb). All items must be properly and securely packed.
