Why has Qantas Replaced Qantas Link on MEL-OOL-MEL

[pyffii]

Have received multiple flight number changes on our regular MEL-OOL-MEL flights which means no more new Airbus 220 with 2 and 3 seat configuration and just happen to like the 2 seat configuration and now back to the old Qantas 737-800, so does anyone know why the change ??

Why was QantasLink on a mainline Qantas route in the first place?

I recall flying on the 733 (or 4) and even 767s on the route back in the 90s. Good to see it back with mainline after a few decades.

Great question

Melbourne to Brisbane going more A220 but Melbourne to OOL going mainline. Hard to get my head around the QF strategy half the time…

Great question

34% lower cost base would be a factor for crew

They're everywhere nowadays. Plenty flying on the golden triangle.
