Sunday 18th of August finds TT398 SYD-PPP (A320 VH-VNO) with late arrival at 18 32, 142 tardy.

TT368 SYD-BNE (A320 VH-VNH) was airborne at 18 02, arrival is revised at 19 30, 260 min late.
 
Monday 19 August 2019 has been a difficult day with fog in BNE and at least sometime during the morning, MEL and SYD down to single runway operation. TT384, the 1910 hours SYD - BNE (A320 VH-VNH) took off at 2011 so arrival is likely at 2124 hours, 44 late.
 
TT262 (Thursday 22 August), the 1830 hours MEL - SYD took off at 1918 with A320 VH-VNR. Consequently, arrival is forecast for 2025, half an hour late.
 
TT464 (1415 hours ADL across to MEL, A320 VH-XUG) took off at 1456 on Friday 23 August with arrival suggested as 1643 hours, 38 late after having to hold above Bendigo, as have quite a few other aircraft. It looks as if MEL is down to single runway operations, creating delays: confirmation from anyone at the airport would be appreciated.

Just what the doctor ordered during Friday's afternoon peak period!

B738 VH-VOY on TT413 (1545 hours MEL - PER) was still queuing for takeoff as at 1642 so will be at least 40 late arriving.

Still on Friday 23 August, A320 VH-VNO on TT253 (1505 hours mid afternoon SYD down to MEL) was in the sky at 1544 so arrival is at about 1716, 36 late.
 
TT282, the 2100 hours MEL - SYD on 23 August was cancelled.

The mid evening 2130 hours MEL - PER, TT421, took off at 2234 with estimate arrival for A320 VH-XUG 0025 hours, 40 late on Saturday 24.

TT279 (SYD down to MEL, the 2035 hours) has A320 VH-VNG, becoming airborne at 2133. Arrival should be 50 late at 2300.
 
Sunday 24 August's TT241 (B738 VH-VOR, the 1255 hours lunchtime SYD down to MEL up up and away at 1349) is arriving at 1504 mid afternoon, 34 late.

The previous post should read 'Saturday' not 'Sunday.' Apologies.

On Sunday 25, TT668 (1845 hours MEL - CBR airborne at 1933, B738 VH-VUD) is arriving at 2024 hours, 34 late.

Earlier, Tt536 (1645 hours late afternoon MEL - BNE) was in the sky at 1921 so expected arrival at 2118 hours will be 138 minutes tardy for B738 VH-VUB.

TT397, the PPP - SYD (A320 VH-VNF) is arriving at 2052 hours, 112 minutes behind its timetable. This aircraft had to substitute for another on the northbound to PPP, explaining the delay.

TT700 (MEL to CFS, the 0705 hours early morning on Monday 26 August) was not airborne until 0908, so B738 VH-VOY's arrival will be delayed until 1038 hours, 98 late. It arrived a minute early in MEL at 0549 ex PER on TT424, so no obvious reason for the delay.

Much later on 26 August, TT642, the 1740 hours ADL across to SYD was airborne at 1944, so A320 VH-XUH should arrive at 2151 hours, 111 minutes late.

Earlier, it looked to be substituting for another aircraft on TT641 (SYD - ADL) so that explains the delay. TT has to substitute one aircraft for another a lot, contributing to its poor punctuality.
 
TT269 (Tuesday 27 August, B738 VH-VOY, the 1840 hours SYD - MEL up up and away at 1946 hours) should arrive in the southern capital at 2104 hours mid evening, 49 late.
 
TT243 (1405 hours SYD - MEL) took off at a very late 1713 hours on Thursday 29 August. B738 VH-VUD was holding above Mt Buller as at 1812 hours so arrival may be tardier than the predicted 1832 hours (172 late.)

The 1720 hours on the same route, TT263 was in the sky at 1813 so A320 VH-VND should arrive at 1832, 37 late.

TT381 (1645 hours BNE - SYD) took off at 1731 and as at 1832 was holding above Broke, NSW (an unfortunate metaphor.) A320 VH-XUG should arrive at around 1905, 45 late.

Later on 29 August, TT384 (A320 VH-XUG, the 1850 hours northbound SYD - BNE up up and away at 2012) should arrive 65 late at 2125 mid evening.

TT262, the 1830 hours MEL - SYD, airborne at 1918 (about 35 late) with A320 VH-VNH, has had a horror run with holding initially necessary above Tumut, then above Gunning and finally north of Goulburn. Arrival should be at about 2122 hours, 87 minutes behind schedule, so a net loss of roughly 53 minutes.

TT501 (Friday 30 August, the 0745 hours MEL south to HBA that took off at 0841 with B738 VH-VOY) should arrive at 0948 hours, 43 late.

The 0800 hours SYD north to OOL, TT604, was up up and away at 0855 with A320 VH-VNK expected to arrive at 1000, 40 late.

Later on 30 August, the OOL - MEL TT561 (A320 VH-VNH, the 1535 hours in teh sky at 1613) looks to be arriving at 1826 hours, 31 minutes tardy.
 
Still on 30 August 2019, TT642 (A320 VH-VNR, the 1740 hours ADL across to SYD in the sky at 1825) should arrive at 2034, 34 late.

Northbound TT384 (VH-VNO) is the 1820 hours SYD to BNE up up and away at 2000 sharp, with arrival likely at 2113 hours, 53 minutes behind schedule.

Saturday 31 August 2019 has TT252, the 1515 hours MEL - SYD not airborne until 1804, so arrival for B738 VH-VUB should be 1912, 152 minutes tardy. It must be substituting for a failed aircraft as it arrived in MEL on TT504 ex HBA at 1715, only 10 minutes late and then as quickly as possible formed TT252.
