I noticed this in the View Onboard Experience section of the Qantas App yesterday while looking at seat availably at T-80 for a SYD-MEL flight on Friday. The App is telling me to expect to be on VH-VYE ("Alice Springs") on Friday.

It isn't something I'd seen before, so thought I'd share.

Let's hope it's the name of the craft and not your actual surprise destination...
 
It’s been around for a month or two now.
As someone who has a record of all airframes travelled on I greatly appreciate knowing in advance.

The Flighty app does that for VA aircraft (sometimes 24 hrs in advance, and you can track its progress in). Qantas has rarely been shown - hopefully Flighty can link to this and display it.
