    Virgin Australia to Reconfigure 737 Fleet - Spend $110M

    Appears it has been in AUH for the last 2 months for what seems to be a D check. Looks like it will be around for a while yet then. Seems like they are going to hold onto some 737s until the 25+ year mark.

    Emirates Delays/Cancellations

    EK414 DXB-SYD (2200 arrival) diverted to PER this evening snd is now wheels up Perth looking at an eta 1230-1am into Sydney. Assume it’s going to Sydney they must have secured approval. Can’t say I’ve seen an A380 land into Sydney that long beyond curfew.

    Jetstar Delays/Cancellations

    Used the whole runway to roll out, engineering issue seems probable. Also seems like an extra flight covering from prior days cancellations, VKE operating a second CNS-NRT today as JQ1025 JQ7 MEL-SIN-MEL canceled today.

    Which is the best airline to fly from Australia to Bali?

    Hoping QF with its new A350/787 fleet might run a DPS overnight with perhaps one aircraft that might have sat overnight. Otherwise they are a joke to Bali. Vote for MH here too. New kit on all routes according to AusBt soon.

    Jetstar NZ faulty baggage scales at WLG

    I was told by a friend living in NZ that Jetstar have the reputation in NZ as to what Tiger had here in Oz. They are perceived worse over the Tasman it seems. Continued fines doesn’t help the image. I doubt Management care one bit though.

    Things Virgin Australia Does & Doesn’t Do Well

    I will admit customer service during the JB years was pretty good, it’s definitely slipped these days as it’s moved to a more financial lead business. IT is still pretty rubbish but they have been upfront around the underinvestment.

    Jetstar adds Melbourne - Colombo

    I was looking over some past invoices in my inbox from a decade ago for a Vegas trip. Times have definitely changed. These are prices for peak ish in August back then. Luxor $76 per night, $25 resort fee night. MGM Grand $91 night, $25 resort fee Car hire Europcar Medium, $24 per day. Virgin...

    JQ Avalon expansion. DPS/ADL/BNE double daily.

    Few cancellations popping up. Looks like 1 stuck in BNE and 2 in Melbourne.

    Jetstar adds Melbourne - Colombo

    They said more medium term so I am thinking more 2030. Unknown what state the country will be in, however I can’t see the prices in Vegas dropping, it’s all double to triple pre pandemic. Long Haul low cost isn’t really a proven model, they would be facing 14-16 hrs westbound, the low cost base...

    Qantas adds OOL-AKL and SYD-AKL-APW

    I’ve been told they have been using the non IFE 737s across the Tasman lately. Is that correct? I thought they had a specific rego back that they used for these flights like Virgin do under VAI.

    Qantas adds OOL-AKL and SYD-AKL-APW

    Fairly sure Virgin operated the AKL-APW route prior to collapse and it didn’t return I assume these are operated by Jetconnect.
