Qantas Delays/Cancellations

Sitting in the Qf First in Melbourne. The paassangers on QF177 from 8 am are telling the front desk they are getting emails and texts that tell them different information about what is happening. The desk was saying they do not know what is going on. Sounds like business as usual.

Update: They have just cancelled QF 177 for today and telling everyone to get to the front desk now, so they can be escorted back landside. New departure time 8 am tomorrow (14th).
 
QF11 12/5 cancelled

On Tuesday 13 May, QF7, the 1025 hours long haul SYD-DFW did not become airborne until 2014 mid evening. B789 VH-ZNI is forecast to arrive at gate at about 1939 hours, 534 minutes late. It looks like this B789 will then form the 13 May QF22, the 2025 hours DFW across and down to MEL estimated to depart an hour late.

On Wednesday 14 May 2025, the B789-operated QF3 (0910 hours from SYD and then 1625 hours from AKL) to JFK was cancelled, so QF4 will be also.

Not good, as the next 'direct' (or if one prefers, nonstop AKL-JFK) is not until Friday 16 May.

A332 VH-EBM on the morning SYD across and up to BLR in India should arrive at about 1759 hours, 84 minutes late.

B789 VH-ZNI that was badly late yesterday is currently operating QF22 from DFW down to MEL that on Thursday 15 should arrive at 0612 hours, 72 late, given its SYD-DFW flight yesterday was many hours behind schedule.
 
I think OQI is the busted one. It’s at LAX.
No QF2 today as it’s operating as the QF332 into SYD 17/5.
OQB arrived at LGW today and OQA as the QF1 into LHR.
OQB will position to LAX today 16/5.
