A388 VH-OQH was ex LAX as QF12 with gate arrival on Saturday 29 August occurring at 0734 hours, only four minutes late.

It is to operate QF63, the 0935 hours SYD-JNB but expected pushback has been delayed by 70 minutes to 1045 hours.

Sister aircraft -OQL is on QF2, the Friday 28 2050 hours mid evening redeye from LHR down to SIN airborne at 2223 hours. Gate arrival today should be about 1813 hours, 43 minutes late, making a punctual arrival in Sydney a bit more challenging for Sunday 30.

The other ex-London QFi departure on 28 August, QF10 down to PER, was also delayed with this 1155 hours scheduled flight not taking off until 1351. On Saturday 29, PER gate arrival looks to be 1325 hours, 100 minutes late.

QF63 on Saturday 29 August ended up not taking off until 1304 hours from SYD, so JNB gate arrival should be 1858 hours, 153 minutes late for A388 VH-OQH.

This will delay the timetabled 1845 hours JNB-SYD (QF64) to a 2045 hours or later pushback. Going by some recent days, it may pick up about 45 minutes of the deficit en route.
