Qatar Airways Delays/Cancellations

[Melburnian1]

QR may not be one of the higher profile airlines flying to and from Oz as it only runs between Doha and Melbourne, and Doha and Perth.

Tonight's QR904 into MEL is running an expected 134 minutes late with arrival likely at 2339. QR905 in the opposite direction will be delayed from 2255 until a forecast 0110. No doubt this will mean some missed European connections.

Due to the late arrival of the inbound flight, QR905 from MEL to DOH did not depart until 0046 on Thursday 29 October and according to Flightradar24.com - Live flight tracker! will not arrive until 0807.

Oryx Rotana or Moevenpick for all the pax that missed connections probably!

QR904, the 0105 hours DOH - MEL on Wednesday 16 March (B773ER A7-BAM) is about 45 minutes late and expected at roughly 2310 hours this evening. It had not taken off until 0211 this morning in the Middle East so that accounts for most if not all of the late operation.

 

[Melburnian1]

QR904 (B773ER A7-BAA), the 2040 hours Wednesday 25 May 2016 AUH to MEL took off at 2059, about on time, but has lost time en route with arrival expected at 1715 hours, 45 minutes late.

On Wednesday 8 June 2016, QR909, the 2145 hours SYD to DOH took off snappily at 2155 hours but will not arrive until 9 June at 0700 instead of 0520 hours. Aircraft is B773ER A7-BEF. The may be strong westerlies retarding progress somewhat.

A bit further south, the longer established QR905, the 2205 hours departure similarly took off on time or even early at 2216 but will not be at the DOH terminal ex MEL until an expected 0835 (three and a quarter hours late) in the morning of 9 June according to FR24. This looks odd: perhaps FR24 needs to update itself.

Thursday 14 July sees QR908, the Wednesday 13 July 2035 hours DOH - SYD having departed at 2105. On 14 July, arrival is suggested as 1819 hours, 44 minutes late. A7-BAH is the B773ER.

[Melburnian1]

B773ER A7-BAJ on QR904, the scheduled 1710 hours Friday 19 August 2016 arrival is extremely late with it likely to pull in to the gate at about 2017 hours this evening, 187 minutes past its timetabled arrival of 1710 hours. Despite a Thursday 18 August scheduled pushbback at 2040, it did not do so until 0012 this morning, so it has not made up more than a tiny number of minutes on the flight.

 

[Melburnian1]

On Monday 10 October, QR904 (B773ER A7-BAO) is badly late with arrival forecast as 2153 instead of 1810 hours. Te returning QR905 is due to depart MEL for DOH at 2305 so it may be slightly late pushing back.

 

[Melburnian1]

Saturday 8 April 2017 has had late afternoon and evening thunderstorms in MEL, with SQ207 diverting to SYD.

The 2205 hours QR905 returning flight from MELO to DOH should, touch wood, only be delayed by around 25 minutes at a guess.
