QF655 11 Feb is returning to Mascot and did not proceed to Redcliffe. Major delays are expected.
I am so concerned that there will be people who are missing connection to MH126 and CX140, therefore missing Lunar New Year!

On Thursday 12 February, A333 VH-QPD arrived ex HKG as QF30 into MEL at 0757 hours, only seven minutes late, but its next tour, QF79, the scheduled 0925 hours midmorning MEL-NRT was expected to push back at 1123.

QF169 MEL CRC on VZG (737) departed at 2017 instead of 1850, ETA is 0116 next day instead of 0010

I wasn’t paying any attention to this flight, only discovered when flying over my house with the noise!!

The QF1599/1598 MEL-ASP-MEL flight pair was cancelled today as a result of flooding in Alice Springs. 100mm of rain in 2 hours overnight into an already saturated Todd River catchment resulted in a moderate river flood and a brief early morning closure of the road through Heavitree Gap leading to the airport. Although the airport never formally closed, QF made an early call to cancel the inbound service prior to it departing MEL after airport management were unable to provide timely assurance that sufficient staff would be able to access the airport to provide ground services. The only other flights after were QF services from ADL and DRW which were held at those ports until that assurance was provided.

On Saturday 14 February, QF63, the midmorning 0930 hours SYD-JNB that is meant to have A388 VH-OQH is delayed to a forecast 1305 hours departur4e, meaning QF64 scheduled to depart South Africa on Saturday night will also be badly late.

Another A380 flight, the 1405 hours SYD-DFW QF7 is forecast to push back at 1600 hours.

UPDATE: QF63 took off at 1351 hours, with forecast gate arrival becoming 1834 tonight, 214 minutes late.
