When does Brisbane get A380

[docjames]

I'd love to see the load factors out of BNE of recent times - it seems like the flights are always packed, and I cant believe there's not (near enough to) the F demand equivalent to MEL.

Expect 380s to come when EK takes more deliveries, but i expect QF will persist with the 744 out of BNE (to LAX) until their last ones finally goes off to Mojave. A QF 380 BNE-SIN is a long way away, lthough frankly they could use some more capacity than the 330 as they always seem packed and the pricing is high IMO. Maybe the 744 can be moved to SIN-BNE and the 380 to LAX?

I guess really it's all wishful thinking. QF dont seem to believe there's a demand for premium travel out of Brisbane.

And remember QF have plenty of 744's and some of them, especially the ER's are not even old. They have to use them somewhere and for quite some time. They will want to fill their proposed 380 routes with pure A380 equipment one would think before BNE gets any chance of a look in and that is some time off yet.
