QF1 scheduled for 17:00 departure delayed to 20:30 tonight, 08 Nov.
And actually departed (from the gate) at 20:42.
After almost 3hrs flying my partner just landed in Newcastle on QF460 after 2 aborted landings in SYD apparently due to high winds. Apparently the airport is full with no where to park so they are just sitting on the tarmac with no info as to what is happening.
Anyone else caught up?
gwilli1, yes it would be a dispensation BUT amazingly QF582 now seems to be heading back to NTL! It's worth watching on Flightradar24.com - Live flight tracker!
Does this mean that the winds in SYD are too high again?
He isn't heading back to NTL. He has been cleared to BNE. Had a thirty minute dispensation for SY curfew and couldn't make it. Presumably a further extension wasn't granted and the PIC requested diversion to BNE
