Jetstar Delays/Cancellations

Considering the engineer has yet to even look at it I would highly doubt it’s continuing on.

I think that’s just a FR24 glitch which auto schedules a diversion on. FlightAware has the actual flight plan and the aircraft has nothing lodged outside of the SYD/DPS leg.
Yes VH-OFW will obviously be grounded but as per @transpactraveller below there appears to be a plan in the system for VH-OYT to sub in to operate a delayed JQ37 ex ADL later this evening
According to FlightRadar24, VH-OYT (which flew in from DPS as JQ126) will take over JQ37 to continue the flight from ADL to DPS.
 
Basically the aircraft (VH-OYT) which operated today's DPS-ADL (JQ126) is now apparently going to operating JQ37 back to DPS

The leaky aircraft (VH-OFW) landed in ADL at 2050 hrs local time and remains in ADL and apparently will operate ADL-OOL (JQ498) tomorrow if operational.

So will see how quickly JQ can turn around JQ37. I don't know if the original crew will take the flight to DPS, ADL-DPS usually takes 5 hrs. SYD-ADL has already up at least 3hrs of crew time.

As of checking just now, JQ37 is very much in the air with VH-OYT, just cruising towards Broome.

That's a pretty amazing quick turnaround to get people to Pulau Dewata!
 
Both JQ7 MEL-SIN and JQ8 SIN-MEL cancelled today and JQ30 BKK-MEL cancelled yesterday.

The refurbished VH-VKK has been quite unreliable lately with multiple delays

We are on JQ7 Monday nervously monitoring the situation

Its a Qantas Classic Award booking and I'm P1 so hoping they do something good.
Pretty good result. All J

Instead of MEL-SIN on JQ and SIN-CDG on AF, they are switching us to MEL-DXB-FCO on EK J

Waiving the extra points and $3.5k taxes.

The wedding we are going to is actually in Italy anyway so this is a big plus. The only downside is the 5:15am flight time :)

Hey, the 5.15AM start means daytime flights right though! More time to hit the EK bar! :)
