Surely with QR doubling its Aussie flights essentially overnight this is starting to bite across the market.

Might be able to add 7kg to carry on if they give you the option to increase like they do for domestic.

Early build 787s which have been pushed hard and are all due for the first heavy check about now, so they are not in great form. D checks start in 4 months and the aircraft are screaming out for these checks!

Still no sign of either 2x787s returning to service, so the cancellations roll on. 😐 Today’s MEL-SIN extended onto coughet as a positioning flight to run Wednesday’s coughet to Sydney service which they used to rescue stranded Melbourne pax last night. So JQ8 is cancelled tonight, and tomorrow...

They appear to be down 2 now. One in HKG and one in HKT. MEL-SIN appears cancelled Friday.

The flight was cancelled If they are now down a second 787, schedule will be a very problematic VKB in HKT VKG in HKG unscheduled

That’s pretty much sums AJs personality doesn’t it? From what I’ve heard anyway.

7 to 8kg with max one item for the bin, and one personal under the seat would work for me If they want to go higher that would be good also, The Scoot 10kg is great and we have used many times for intra Asia hops.

I recall they went to some South American Airlines plus some in Europe. These seats had been the Mark 1 seats that got replaced from memory with the Business. I assume they have been sitting around for all these years and someone wants them gone. Thought they might have tried to flog them off...

Not sure targeting elite guests would go down well either. Perhaps it’s just going to be one piece plus one personal piece. Not the two plus one. A whole bunch of carriers don’t allow the carry on to be split into two bags in the overhead bin. Moving from 7kg to 6kg or something won’t do...

Is wifi installs done locally also?

Looks the below are going to be cancelled early this week due to the short fleet Mon- Tag Flight Tue-TBC Wed BNE-NRT-BNE Thur MEL-SIN-MEL

According to the media release, work to start ‘mid 2025’ and first completed by ‘end calendar year 2025’. Program to be done by end of 2026, so well in 16 months the whole fleet planned should be done. The first lot of non sunrise 787s and A350s are due from July next year, remains to be seen...

Today’s 787 cancelations appear to be SYD-HNL-SYD which will cover them until late tomorrow JQ7 was spared today.

I’ve noticed lately that performance has been getting a bit average. In the last month I’ve been burnt three times by 2x 2hr delays and a cancellation. All engineering related. I note some parked in BNE being used as parts in the interm, and most weeks seems like we have a return back for...

They want them to hang around until the 2030 ish mark they don’t they? Not many run 330s up to the 3rd heavy check.

Many have been caught out with the old Melbourne (MEL) and Melbourne (AVV) trick also. I’m not sure how they will frame it perhaps Sydney (Kingsford Smith), Sydney (Western Sydney).

Probably easier to move people from HNL onto QF or via LAX and the same with SIN. The rest of the network is a bit more challenging when trying to get people to the destination, especially many now without a 3K connection. I guess they can now push people to HKT/BKK via Perth which would be an...

Be careful, they are down one 787 at the moment and it might be for a little while if it’s going to HKG for what appears unscheduled engineering. Any tag flight, SIN and HNL 787 flights appear to be targeted when they are short an aircraft.
