If you are inbound over NT or QLD when these things happen there isn’t many places one can divert to.

I think that might be the right approach initially. Gives them the opportunity to lean in to that market when it starts to pick up. They will be able to walk in and pick up a good share when it starts to become a bigger market, plus let the others test the market to work out what the market out...

Nothing that really stands out in the analyst briefing, I only joined near the back half. -FY28 is first -10 -Any -10 slots can be converted to -8s if certification is delayed. Won’t lose delivery slot in queue for example -Not looking at converting any 8s to 10s. -Transformational cost gains...

I think early build 788s won’t go on too long. Remains to be seen but I doubt they will enter a second heavy check at the 20-25 year mark and will probably be used for parts.

Today they release FY25 results to the market listed as ASX:VGN. Webcast will be at 1030, Presentation will be released to the ASX within the next hour. Numbers had been forecasted in the Prospectus, not sure if we will see any further announcements today in regards to anything else ie more...

I recall mid Aug to mid Sep is often a lighter period for outbound as the bulk of the summer traffic has departed. Back in the day we flew Virgin most years across, outbound mid August, and back early September. All outbound was never more than say 50%, one had only 100 people. Coming back all...

Hard to see where the Jetstar International profit pool lies in terms of fleet but I’d say the A321 is a big driver in he numbers. I would imagine a replacement for the 787-8 would be the -9 but perhaps in smaller numbers likely 9/10. Not sure they would exit long haul widebody just yet, who...

I’d say those Japan to Cairns runs are all but destined for this aircraft. Not sure if the increase in premium product on the 787 is suited to a route like CNS-Japan compared to others.

If they could add these to the normal NEO fleet that would be great. Those headrest less recaro seats are not the greatest.

Why didn’t they just opt for the 321Neo instead of the XLR if they only intend to operate a bunch on domestic? Hardly needs the extra fuel tanks on those missions.

National Jet Systems are essentially a fully fledged domestic operator. Not a regional link operator like they make out.

From what I’ve been told it’s D checks and refit at the same time. The timeframe matches up. D check is essentially pulling the entire insides apart so I can see why they are doing it at the same time.

VKG had returned from HKG. VKI seems like the next one to go to HKG, although cancelled flight yesterday. I assume they are getting last minute works done in preparation for them getting through the peak period without breakdowns, before they hit the big checks from Jan.

Jetstar has quietly reduced SGN flights over the coming months and moving the capacity to BKK. Think capacity is a bit over done to Vietnam at the moment, can get same week fares for $250 across Jetstar and Vietjet.

Unlucky. Looks like the aircraft was on a SYD-MCY-SYD shift prior and was late, certainly appears like it probably wouldn’t have made it back to Sydney tonight if it continued on its Melbourne return. Only downside of the A321 is the longer turns which is a killer if trying to beat the curfew.

Only saying that as on the analyst call they said they had been all owned by QF. I think what they meant was all are owned/leased by QF and then simply leased out to a said subsidiary. The Tiger leather seats heading to Network will be the same as some of those VA hellships, I recall it was...

Would these not be leased? I thought the 3K fleet was owned by QF and leased to 3K

I assume we have a charter HNL-MEL next week then?

6001 was a Brethern charter last year I recall, SYD-AKL. Considering the costs involved pulling it off a revenue service, crewing, these flights have cost a motza. Certainly must be more worthwhile for QF compared to operating a normal service otherwise why bother, so no doubt in the millions...

Keep the SQ Cabin found it quite good.
