QF51 equipment change to 787

[Matthew Brown]

Looks like QF has scheduled 787s for QF51 next week... is this because of ongoing MX issues with the 330 fleet?

Only Friday 28 February?

And the 27th it seems.

I just noticed 26 February as well

Quite a few dates in March as well.

Interestingly, Qantas is not selling Premium Economy on these flights. Presumably this means you could book Economy and choose a PE seat, although I just tried making a dummy booking on the Qantas website and seat selection wasn't available at all.

That’s exactly how I found out. Managed to select to PE seats for the 27th.

787s also scheduled on the 119/126 BNE/AKL/BNE rotation.
Qantas has filed Premium Economy fares on this route.

Fingers crossed I get a last-minute switch to a 787 on my QF51 at the start of the March

I've made a last minute booking and we miss each other by 1 day

Nice!! When I was flying that those planes were ALWAYS jam packed! The ability to book premium economy would very much be welcomed!

Any advice on the best seat for my flight tomorrow?
