expect some unhappy punters tonight (23/10) on NZ24 AKL-YVR.
After 2 hour delay departing, it turned back after about 30 mins.
Could be a long night.

On Friday 8 November during the early evening, due to strong winds SYD looked to be down to single runway operations using runway 25.

Many aircraft are holding prior to arrival. NZ883, the 1600 hours CHC - SYD took off punctually at 1620 but arrival for A320 ZK-NHA is at 1807, 32 late.

The NLK to SYD NZ763 (ZK-OJB, an A320) was only about 10 minutes late taking off but arrival is at 1816 hours, a stunning 106 minutes late.

RAR to SYD NZ61 (B772ER ZK-OKA) was only about 10 - 15 minutes late taking off at 1547 hours but due to a hold, arrival should be 37 late at 1957 hours.

NZ865 ZQN-MEL 15 40 hours service was cancelled.
 
Tuesday 12 November has NZ123 (morning 0850 hours AKL to MEL) taking off at 0938 hours with B773ER Zk-OKM. Arrival is suggested as 1142, 47 late.
 
Saturday 16 November finds A321N ZK-NNB initially as NZ881 CHC-SYD with revised arrival at 10 20, 105 late. This will further delay the departure of the return leg NZ884 which is now suggested at 11 40
 
Friday 22 November sees NZ105 AKL-SYD (B789 ZK-NZH) divert to MEL
NZ883 CHC-SYD (A20N ZK-NHC) diverted to BNE
NZ849 WLG-SYD (A20N ZK-NHB) also diverted to BNE

Monday 25 November's late afternoon and early evening has seen storms and lightning in Sydney so NZ888, the early evening 1915 hours SYD - CHC did not take off until 2041 hours. Arrival for A320 ZK-NHA should be at 0121 hours on Tuesday 26, 56 minutes tardy.
 
Later on a stormy Tuesday 26 November 2019 afternoon and early evening in Sydney, NZ849 from WLG to SYD is arriving at 1809 hours, 34 minutes late with A320 ZK-NHB. SYD looks to be down to only using the east-west runway: there is a large number of aircraft waiting to take off as at 1805 hours, even though Tuesday is normally the quietest weekday for air travel.

The Melbourne rain on Wednesday 15 of January has caused the diversion of NZ865 ZQN-MEL (A320 ZK-OJB) which diverted to SYD.
 
NZ850 on Wednesday 15 January, the 1820 hours early evening MEL - WLG has been cancelled. Thunderstorms remain in the area, compounding earlier bushfire smoke haze extensive delays.
 
NZ175, the Saturday 1110 hours AKL - PER took off at 1232 so B789 ZK-NZF's arrival looks like 1422 hours, 47 minutes behind the timetable.
 
Tuesday 21 January's NZ136 (1110 hours morning BNE - AKL, B789 ZK-NZJ) may be having a memorable day, but for an incorrect reason, as the flight was not airborne until 1847 hours. Arrival should be 0040 on Wednesday 22, 435 minutes behind schedule after a tiring day.
 
On a very hot Melbourne afternoon/early evening (c.40, but not as hot as Adelaide where it's 42.8 degrees), NZ125 (the afternoon 1525 hours AKL across to MEL, A320 ZK-OJH that was not pointing skywards until 1725 hours) should arrive at around the 1847 mark, 77 minutes behind the timetable.

This aircraft may have failed in Sydney yesterday (29 Jan) as after arrival at 0757 hours, 18 early as NZ845 ex Windy WLG, it formed NZ6000 (empty flight?) this morning (Thursday 30 January) to AKL (taking off an hour late at 1056) instead of operating yesterday's 0925 hours SYD - ZQN NZ832 that got the flick.

NZ126, the 1855 hours evening MEL - AKL will therefore be delayed this evening.
