New Routes to/from Oz

[browski]

If one does not already exist, could we start a thread which displays new routes to/from Australia?
I know many airlines announce a new route but they do not eventuate, so maybe only list them if they have started selling tickets.

Information like:

PER-Guangzhou (CAN) China Southern commencing Nov 8
BNE-HNL Strategic Airlines commencing Dec 14
MEL-HNL Strategic Airlines commencing Dec 14
MEL-SIN-PEK JetStar commencing Nov 24
MEL-Dunedin (DUD) Pacific Blue commencing Nov 1
SYD-Dunedin (DUD) Pacific Blue commencing Nov 1
SYD-Queenstown (ZQN)JetStar commencing Dec 23

I'm sure there are more. Domestic ones would be good too.

Good idea - I found these 2 new routes particularly ironic given your comment

I don't understand. Are you suggesting Strategic are not selling fares on those routes. Their website allows me to do so. Apologies if that is not the case.

Not at all, just pointing out given Strategic's size and track record it seems unlikely the HNL services will eventuate or last long if they do.

MEL-SIN-PEK JetStar commencing Nov 24

Semantics I know, is this a new route to/from Oz or just an extension of an existing route? Where is the line drawn for "direct" services with 11.5hr transits.

This aside, great idea.

Considering they cannot even keep their name let alone their destinations stable. BTW any new routes generally pop up here in their own thread and often have specific discussion re frequency and or aircraft or sales on offer, as do changes to existing routes, and are more easily found by the search function in their own threads.
