Qantas swaps Flight numbers

[CaptJCool]

Seems like I hit a couple of these

One on 29th November literally shifted me from morning to evening flight. No no no - did a change back to the same time, same route, different flight number hence this thread

The other one is a flight number change - Syd to OOL same time, same route, different flight number

Ps alerted to this by @blackcat20 in another thread and now copped a couple of these myself.

Would seem this is going to be an issue for forward bookings which is a pain point pushed onto the customer to sort out

Sounds like they are shuffling all the OOL flights, as that's what mine are too (but to/from MEL).

Yes, I got hit with this too. Had to change a couple of bookings. Of course, I had nothing better to do with my time than wait on hold for Qantas and then wait.

I also had a business class flight MEL-CBR which had to be changed to Y on a Dash-8, due to major schedule changes. Well done Qantas.

Happens to HBA flights - the A220 flights have certain flight numbers QF12XX; if there is is B737 sub, a new flight number occurs.
