Jetstar Delays/Cancellations

[Saab34]

Used the whole runway to roll out, engineering issue seems probable.

Also seems like an extra flight covering from prior days cancellations, VKE operating a second CNS-NRT today as JQ1025

JQ7 MEL-SIN-MEL canceled today.

@Dmac59 , that aircraft (B788 VH-VKG) eventually arrived SGN at 0122 this morning, 262 minutes late. It is on its way back to MEL as JQ64 running about 236 minutes late assuming the gate arrival time doesn't alter.

On Sunday 14 December, A320 VH-VFQ had overnighted in Melbourne but has had a shockingly late start to what should be a busy day given it's 10 days prior to Christmas.

JQ900, the 0705 hours MEL-BQB took off at 1038 hours with arrival suggested as 1129 hours, 194 minutes behind schedule.

FR24 asserts that the aircraft will be on its way as JQ901 at 1145 hours from Busselton back to Melbourne. Even if the arrival time is advanced by a few minutes, this is most unlikely. I often wonder how these supposed departure times are calculated when it ought be blindingly obvious a turnaround usually takes at least 35 minutes, and often longer.

JQ48 ex ICN arrived SYD on Sunday at 1125, 80 minutes late with B788 VH-VKH.

The BNE up to CEB JQ101 on Sunday 14 DEcember (A321 VH-OYK) took off at 1315 hours, arriving at 1804, 49 minutes late. The return flight (JQ100) timetabled to depart at 2015 hours has been cancelled, meaning the plane remains in Cebu.

Monday 15 December 2025 finds JQ17, the scheduled 1155 hours MEL-HKT (coughet) having taken off at 1253 hours with ageing B788 VH-VKB. Arrival at this secondary but busy Thai airport should be at about 1721 hours, 71 minutes late.

JQ17/18 had been cancelled yesterday (Sunday 14) so no doubt the aircraft today will be full (but not 'full and standing' as with long distance trains in some countries).

I have read of many issues up there. Hong Kong A330 and a BizJet ran into trouble also.
