Hi all,

have family members on QF16 (departed LAX 29 Aug bound for BNE)

flightaware shows flight redirected to HNL??

how do I find out why? etc....
 
Sometimes the reason is entered in the GDS, which then shows up on sites like expert flyer, but that doesn't appear to have happened this time.

Expert Flyer is currently showing a planned ground time of 1 hour, landing at 0215 Hawaii time and departing at 0315 for a 0800 BNE arrival. FR24 is showing the aircraft (VH-OJT) to the east of Hawaii at the moment.

Odd that it is listed as "redirected" rather then "diverted".
 
Not sure if the info is here:
