QF617 BNE-MEL cancelled this morning.

Anyone know why?

Anyone know why?

I suspect the mess left from last night has meant aircraft are not where they should be at the start of the new day!

What occurred last night?

Early morning storm activity upset the system so by last night as curfew approached their were significant issues.

Thanks.
Was told there was a "maintenance issue", but apparently not.

Hell!
It was a bad day indeed

Yes, it was a real bad day. Daughter was to fly CBR-SYD last night at 8pm, to stay overnight in order to catch an EK flight to Moscow. With the cancellations they decided to bus people to Sydney so she was not arriving until after 11pm then had to be back at airport for the 6am flight. She was not best pleased after a long day at work to begin with! At least they were within commuting distance so could get there eventually, not like some on the list.
