In a statement provided to Australian Aviation, Bonza seem to be pinning these changes on reacting to market demand rather than their lack of aircraft. Source: Bonza pares back Gold Coast services after 5 months

OOL-ISA & MQL are also being reduced to 1 weekly. They've now cut the OOL schedule to use just 1 aircraft. Mon: ROK, MKY, TSV, DRW (red eye) Tue: CNS, LST Wed: ROK, MQL, ISA Thu: CNS, AVV, PPP Fri: ROK, MKY, TSV, DRW (red eye) Sat: CNS, LST Sun: MEL, AVV, PPP The ABX flight will use a MCY...

Frequency cuts for the Gold Coast base have now been extended through the whole bookable schedule until the end of October. Days of operation changing across a number of routes too.

I'd wager it's the latter point because Nauru's passenger aircraft aren't really doing anything extra outside of their regular scheduled service.

Flights are re-appearing on the app for the Gold Coast routes in May and June, but in most cases they're completely changing the operational days (and flight times) to accomodate lower frequencies with just once based aircraft. That's going to burn a few bridges with the punters. It's still...

Looks like something is up. The app is now showing the following frequencies for flights to/from Gold Coast for all of May and June: • Three times per week: Townsville • Twice per week: Rockhampton, Albury • Once per week: Cairns, Proserpine, Darwin, Launceston, Avalon, Tullamarine, Mildura •...

It's being speculated elsewhere that the lease arrangement between Bonza and Nauru has been terminated...

The AFL24 promo code has expired.

Today's service is operating as QF209 via Singapore. MEL-PER-SIN-LHR.

A few of the Gold Coast routes are showing no, or very few, flights available for sale over the next 2 weeks. Namely OOL-CNS/TSV/MKY/MEL/AVV. Have also read a few stories of Bonza cancelling flights ex-OOL and offering a bus to Maroochydore and flight from there as an alternative.

They had quite a few cancelled flights over the Easter weekend (mainly ex-OOL) because of aircraft unavailability. A number of flights were removed from sale but still operated on the Nauru 737-300, suggesting they at least reached the seat capacity of the -300 on those flights.

8ID back in service today.

More cancellations ex-OOL over the next couple of days. Nauru doesn't appear to be operating and some flights using the spare Bonza aircraft have also been cancelled. Crewing issues maybe? Also some lengthy delays ex-MCY today after an aircraft got stuck in CNS overnight. MCY-TSV delayed 10...

Around 7 days give or take.

Also recently tried out the A220 from Melbourne to Brisbane and it was a pretty decent experience. A few thoughts (similar to what others have posted): Aisles are nice and wide, people could easily squeeze past the trolley Wifi was slow and glitchy Louder than I had expected Felt the...
