JFK Qantas Check-in

[Ryan K]

Hi everyone.

I'm going to be travelling from Toronto to JFK on American Eagle in May and then have a seven hour wait until my QF flight back to Australia. As I booked these flights separately, I'll have to collect and re-check my bags. Does anyone know how far in advance I can check in for my QF flight back to SYD? I'm hoping I can do this sooner rather than later and avoid a vacant Qantas check-in counter and a hellish seven hour wait at JFK...

Thanks in advance for your replies.
