Qantas Delays/Cancellations

Maybe after the return of the 63 yesterday they don’t have enough tech crew/crew to operate?

In more on Saturday 6 December, QF94 from LAX down to MEL with A388 VH-OQJ is arriving half an hour late at 1000 hours.

The diverted and overnight delayed QF63 is now expected to shortly depart MEL at 1200 'high noon' on Saturday 6 December, though it isn't displaying at the airfield on FR24.

Well my two staff on Norfolk have been delayed 24 hours (arguably in paradise). Fortunately our office staff on Norfolk sorted their accommodation.

Today will see both QF179 ex SYD and QF183 ex BNE operate.

You may be correct, although one would hope not, given VH-OQC has flown long distances since its lengthy AUH refurbishment, and QF has publicised it as being back, resulting in a few glowing media articles.

But nothing much QF does ought surprise. After all, it's the "world's best airline managers" as Alan Joyce looked in the mirror to constantly remind himself. Little change under Vanessa Hudson.


Given how QF11 SYD-LAX is cancelled on Saturday 6 December, this may prove to be one of @jb747 's most prescient observations. Time will tell.

As a side issue, given Christmas and school holidays are approaching (and for many school students and all at uni, already the case), it must be more difficult by the day to quickly find 400 spare seats on QFi or other airlines when an A380 flight is given the flick.

QF11 results in QF94 being cancelled as well.

Underway now.
