I just did it - was easy to miss the "pay" button. Not the best system but at least it came through instantly...hopefully will be easy to get through on arrival - ill know in 12 hours....

Last nights QF33/9 routed over Saudi and Egypt, not sure if that route has been deemed "too risky" now? Or if they are taking significant payload hit. 1723084172 QF 5 SYD-PER also cancelled

Nothing particularly special about the new 777 business, give me a Q Suite any day

Guessing this will be the same with CDG too, not sure if FCO will be okay? I wonder what impact this will have with the 787 fleet scheduled so tightly

It does sometimes reduce

LH have announced they won’t be flying through Iranian or Iraqi airspace until at least aug 7, QF route planning must be getting tight on the euro flights, peak summer season too

i think it’s also about avoiding its usual path through the Gulf, QF10 is doing the same

unfortunately UL are not the airline they use to be, long delays and cancellations due to tech issues are commonplace, something to bare in mind if you’re booking.

Exactly, the peak times are mostly corporate / business traffic which ZL failed to capture, most pax are booked through corporate travel etc which rex did not feature on. Its best performing routes were leisure dominated such as OOL.

I think you are misinterpreting the premise of the article, with Broken Hill and Merimbula, Rex flies to multiple state capitals (SYD/MEL) being the only operator on one of those pairs. "In a lot of places" wasnt specifically refencing those towns regarding being the sole operator as far as my...

Could shortly be a few more ex SQ 738s available ..i wouldnt be surprised if VA pick them up.

Jet ops will be wound up but Saab regional will continue by the sounds of it.

Thats before we even get onto the two stage e gate process :rolleyes:

One of the benefits of the smaller Saabs into ALH and EPR has been an increase in schedule and subsequently pax numbers, the ability to do day return flights are key to the success of these routes. Previously these were flown by VA on the F50 at roughly half the number of flights. the other...

The Rex ops keeps QF and VA honest on the jet routes and without doubt fares would rise if they were to go - have they done a terrible job of marketing etc of course, but as consumers I wouldn’t be celebrating a return to the cosy duopoly. Regional flying has always been marginal especially to...

Sure the service is not the same inter europe or USA but neither are the fares so what do people expect. In many ways i find BA better value than QF, fares are often the same as easyjet etc, im happy to eat in the lounge or buy food in the airport.

The AUD has been sliding the last week or so, back to 65.5 US, seems the consensus is for further decline.

Love the Q suites - but as others have said there is poor consistency across the fleet. Wasnt impressed with 787-9 "suite"

I wonder what $ they’ve lost with this venture, particularly in lost opportunity in one less aircraft for profitable domestic flying 1721620290 I wonder what $ they’ve lost with this venture, particularly in lost opportunity in one less aircraft for profitable domestic flying
