Does anyone know what the aircraft movements are to Denpasar?
For me I flew PER - DPS and it was on VH-YIF (so a near new aircraft)
On the return from DPS - PER, it didnt appear that after our departure there was any future Virgin Outbound flights for quite a long time .... So when we got bussed to the aircraft standing area, there was VH-YIA, VH-YIB and VH-YID sitting in a row!
Just a found it a bit bizarre they had so many aircraft there and why DPS (a leisure destination) seems to be fed BSI aircraft with business seating.
My personal theory is that they run in a triangle such as MEL > PER > DPS > BNE > PER etc. so the aircraft gets domestic use for the business seating, and probably via BNE for maintenance.
