Qantas Delays/Cancellations

On Wednesday 18 March 2026, QF3, the 0945 hours SYD-AKL took off at 1044 with B789 VH-ZND, arriving at 1518 hours, 28 minutes late.

However as per @Flyerqf 's post above, there's another >24 hour delay with the second sector to JFK expected to depart AKL at 2000 hours local time on Thursday 19 (1800 AEDT). Note @JessicaTam 's post above that said the aircraft had engineering issues. A mooted three hour delay has became far more serious. The crew being out of hours may be another factor in the mix.
