HU7993 took off from XIY on Sunday 10 January at 1845, much later than its departure time of 1705 and will arrive in SYD at about 0835 on Monday 11 instead of 0720. Aircraft is A332 B-6118. As HU7994 back to this remote part of mainland China is not due to leave SYD until 1015, it should be on time.
 
HU7993 was delayed overnight with the 0720 hours timetabled Monday 29 February arrival about to reach SYD at about 1835 hours at the gate, 11 hours and 15 minutes late. Aircraft is A332 B-6118.

The 1015 (this morning) HU7994 back to XIY is likely to depart at 1945 hours or later, fingers crossed.
 
On Sunday 16 October 2016, HU7993, the 15 October 1655 hours from distant XIY to SYD that was not airborne until 1828 is arriving at about 0825, 65 minutes tardy. Aircraft is A332 B-6118.
 
Sunday 23 October sees HU7993 from XIY to SYD likely to pull into the gate at around 0831, 71 minutes late. A332 B-6088 is the aircraft.

Sunday 6 November 2016 has HU7993, the 1705 Saturday 5 XIY - SYD having taken off at 1943, so on Sunday it should arrive at about 0916 instead of 0720. Aircraft is A332 B-6088.
 
On Saturday 12 November 2016, the 0915 hours from SYD to CSX took off at 1011 (A333 B-8117). Arrival is expected 44 minutes late at 1719.
 
On Wednesday 23 November, the arriving HU7901 (A332 B-6133) in MEL (ex XIY) should complete its journey at 0854, 114 minutes behind time. AS HU7902 back to XIY is supposed to depart MEL at 0900, expect it to be about 75-80 minutes late this morning in pushing back: one source claims that it will not depart until 1020.
 
The Friday 16 December HU7901 from XIY to MEL was scheduled to depart at 1630 but did not push back until a rather late 1859 hours. On Saturday 17, A333 B-5935 should arrive at 0854 instead of 0700, 114 minutes tardy.
 
The Boxing Day 2016 HU7997 took off from CSX at 1835, half an hour after nominated pushback time of 1805, but on Tuesday 27 December it is not arriving until 0748 hours, 48 minutes tardy. A332 B-6519 has the task.
 
On Thursday 16 March 2017, HU7993, the overnight from HIY to SYD should arrive at about 0839, 79 minutes late with A332 B-6519.
 
Thursday 20 April 2017 has HU7993, the overnight from XIY down to SYD (A332 B-6519) likely to arrive at 0833 hours, 123 minutes tardy. HU7994 returning, the 0825 hours twice weekly - one of the least frequent routes connecting an Australian and a mainland Chinese city - should be able to depart at around 0950 hours if all goes well.
 
Saturday 22 April has HU7902, the 0820 hours early morning from MEL to XIY (A332 B-6089) having taken off at 1213; arroval should be 38 minutes late at 1823 early this evening.
 
Sunday 4 June 2017 sees HU7994 (0825 hours SYD - XIY, A332 B-6519) having taken off at 0928 with arrival at about 1820, 35 minutes late the prediction.
 
HU7902, the twice weekly MEL - XIY, which The Melbourne Airport website says is the 0820 hours Tuesday 6 June departure but which Google says normally departs at 1320 - take your pick - has been delayed until an expected 2330 hours in its pushback. This is because HU7901, the scheduled 0620 hours arrival is coming in at 2210, so there must have been a failure of the aircraft in XIY by the looks of such a huge delay. B-6519 is the A332: it arrived in XIY from FCO at about 0430 hours local time.

On a fog affected Thursday 14 June 2017 in SYD, HU7993 (the overnight from XIY, A332 B-6088) is likely to arrive at around 0824, 114 minutes behind schedule.
