JQ have apparently confirmed to a Mackay MP that the BNE-MKY route is being suspended, wonder what other routes will go?
 
Crystal ball here and pure speculation:
Busselton (to SYD and MEL) is suspended until September, truthfully I can't see them returning.
I can also see MEL-SIN disappearing plus international flights to Hamilton and Dunedin stopping once the subsidies dry up.
Longer term I wouldn't be surprised if CNS to NRT/KIX get switched to an A321neo (is this within range), and maybe even CBR flights ending (hand back to QF for more $$$).

Could be more medium term the XLRs are not far away.

787s are probably better used elsewhere especially with crew rest and more premium seating. They have large idle time on the ground in Cairns also.

Results out in a week or two should get some more colour on where the QF Group network sits. I’d say capacity will be relatively flat for the rest of the first half.
