[HS-TQE]

Are there any flights from Melbourne planned ?

At least with QF Group (QantasLink and Jetstar).

That never seemed to be a problem for MEL …..

 

[Bindibuys]

Yes, hubby & I walked the runway today, along with apparently 10 000 others.
It was really well organized.

Confirmation there will be (a) 'premium lounge'

It has been a long journey since The Daily Telegraph began campaigning for a second airport over a decade ago to now be eating the first-ever meal in the terminal just three months before freight operations take off.

The business class Barrington beef tenderloin and market vegetables, sourced from Western Sydney, has been prepared by Rob Smithson, head chef for dnata Asia Pacific, which is responsible for 57 million Australian airline meals every year.

THE VENUE: The first meal ever eaten in the WSI terminal

THE MEAL: Barrington beef tenderloin and market vegetables with fondant potatoes and mushroom ragout

As he tucks in with gusto, Hickey points to the restaurant area and premium lounge where customers will be able to eat before their flights overseas with Singapore Airlines and Air New Zealand, or domestically with Qantas and Jetstar.

Does anyone know what VA's plans re WSI are? I haven't seen/can't find any actual virgin published information about their plans

They haven't announced anything and appears they probably won't serve from Day 1.

Also a good 20min video from the Runway Run.

From 3min peering through the lower level.
Flights shown by QF and JQ, but mainly the mystery airline 6X
