Reading the report it appears like they would be chasing tens of millions from QF to cover contract cost blowouts. Seems unlikely so close to a contracts end . I think Alliance will play a part, just not as big. Darwin/Cairns are bases that come to mind that might remain wet lease over a longer...

I wonder where they will start to go next year. Alliance appear to have the Embrear contract with Qantas for further two years. Intra QLD hopefully next up.

Also (runway works at Doha) Doha – Adelaide 16APR26 – 17JUN26 Reduce from 7 to 5 weekly, A350-900

Looks like both cancelled SIN-MELs came home eventually in recovery flights. I think it might be better to just axe the route and not even bother at all. The route just seems more a hassle these days.

Looks like VKB is out of order in Singapore. JQ8 SIN-MEL cancelled yesterday and also tonight, assuming the current JQ7 MEL-SIN is operating a return backlog flight tonight plus dropping off spare parts!

I wonder if someone hit the wingtip or it’s been taken away due cracks/corrosion etc.

It’s an old tired fleet that should be heading to the exit.

Compared to prior years I am earning about half or less QFF points so I think it’s more change behind the scenes vs anything else. Before they had the 10% off offer, the points on offer was much higher across offers, it’s clear the investment has been moved to behind that % off offer compared...

3000 points for $150 spend this week 5x points online shop over $60 500 points spend $10 on freezer No offers from Coles this month on spend/points so Woolworths it is for me at the moment.

That seems helpful. So you call an internal security team and the deal with the offload via the police?

Designed for a population that is not as heavy as other nations, Average Filipino is only 60kg compared to nearly 90kg in the west. Cebu also cram in a stupidly high number of seats in the A330.

AV, how often do you need to kick off passsngers for misbehaving? I have noted some poor behaviour lately. Is it a case of calling the AFP and telling them you want this person off and that’s the end of it? Ie the AFP has to do what the Captain wants?

It’s operates by a subsidiary who pay much less. I’m not sure they are replacing seats like for like either. I’d be interested to see on MEL-BNE if seats have slipped, but the could be getting a higher load factor. Virgin run a lot of -700s on the route also, definitely one that fluctuates a...

I’d imagine one will, likely waiting for whoever announces it first, both frequencies going to Toronto probably too much, likewise both going to Vancouver also too much. I’d say one frequency to each YYZ/YVR and Emirates to Vancouver. Would mean Etihad can pull the A380 off Toronto and go for...

Give it time, launch fares on many new starters are some of the worst fares you will ever see. Come back in say 1-2 months.

Expect more growth to Canada from EK and EY as the air services agreement has just added another 14 flights for UAE carriers effectively immediately.

If this is successful, and I’d imagine it will be considering the BKK route only has one full service carrier, plus Euro traffic is strong, then I wonder if Sydney is next. The other HEL-BKK could continue onto Sydney instead of returning. I see the Head of Strategy is a Sydney born individual...

Who remembers GOLD Airways? They even got a Wikipedia page. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RMA_Gold_Airways

According to the Management Team LinkedIn search, all are employed elsewhere. Seems like Bill is running this alone trying to find someone to fund it. I hope he has read the Bonza creditors report. Will give him a good run down on expenses involved and how it’s somewhat not possible to make a...

Do legacy cabin crew operate any of these Asian and now MEL flights? Or are they all Asian labour hire.
