Qantas Delays/Cancellations

'The 37' with A388 VH-OQD is the Friday 28 November 1650 hours MEL to SIN. It wasn't airborne until 1822 hours, so SIN at gate arrival will be about 2303 hours, 63 late. Again, QF38 back down to MEL will be delayed.

It's a small sample of flights but in the brief period they've been an A380, QF37/38 have unimpressive timekeeping, and a cancellation each way.
 
@ABC1, they're not 'all late' (assuming you were referring to the same flights as I am below).

QF63 from SYD to JNB on Friday 28 November should arrive about 10 minutes early, while QF2 from LHR to SIN should be about a minute early at its destination gate. I've not checked the others.

Melbourne T1 had a fire in the terminal tonight, resultant cancellation of all but a couple QF domestic flights for the remainder of the night. Arriving aircraft spent up to 2 hours on the tarmac in a queue unable to reach a gate

Shame they couldn’t park remotely and unload via buses to T3/4
