From the newsroom article: "[3] Virgin Australia’s flights will all include the QSuite configuration by default. The aircraft will only switch to a non-QSuite fitted aircraft if operationally required."

YQW's scheduled for Mon 09 Dec: QF1271 CBR 0605 MEL 0720 QF1272 MEL 0820 CBR 0925 QF1277 CBR 1005 MEL 1120 QF1276 MEL 1200 CBR 1305

Apparently two A320s are leaving soon anyway because the leases weren't extended.

Saw that Gate 2 in Melbourne has line markings for the E190-E2 now, so anything is possible I guess.

Flights can be booked from today. Source: Virgin Australia and Air New Zealand's love story takes off

At least two more ex-Silk 737-800s are due for Virgin in the coming months. First aircraft is VH-IJR.

I certainly don't disagree with you about wanting to reward those who fly Virgin more, but I find it a little incongruous for them to be disincentivising travel on their partner airlines given their whole international network 'strategy' since post-administration has hinged on said partner...

The seats in those were bought new for the Tiger 737s. They are the same type as the new VA seats anyway, just a less inspiring colour palate.

No. They've all been reupholstered with grey leather.

Today's A220 service on SYD-LST v.v. cancelled and replaced with a Q400 with a flying time of 1 hour and 50 minutes.

IJQ and IWQ have the new seats as they were the 'trial' aircraft, but they're yet to be reconfigured to the 182 seat configuration. The rest of the Silk aircraft have old VA J seats and Silk Air Y seats which were reupholstered into VA colours. All the Silk aircraft still have the different...

AFAIK, the BSI aircraft, younger VU aircraft and ex KLM 700s are keeping their existing Y seats and having the chargers fitted. Only the VB/VO/older VU aircraft got new Y seats.

I've experienced similar a few times recently, but managed to get through mostly. Although, after the welcome message it would spend a minute just ringing and ringing while it tried connect to the selection prompts. On one call, it failed and dropped out after two minutes but when I called back...

Flight Radar shows VH-A5A scheduled to operate JQ430 MEL-OOL tomorrow morning.

Alliance E190s subbing in for select MEL-CBR and MEL-HBA A220 services throughout January. Quite a few of the Hobart A220 services have switched to the 737 too.

Scheduled to operate SYD-HBA again on Monday.

And it's back to SYD...

They went Q300 only out of Melbourne for the last couple of years.

Q400s resumed operations out of Melbourne this afternoon. Seat maps for the ex WestJet Q400s have also appeared on the Qantas website. First aircraft is due to arrive in Australia this week.

As far as I can tell, the A320neo is scheduled to enter service in mid-December and will be based out of Melbourne. Currently scheduled for 2 daily round trips to Hobart and 1 each to Sydney and Brisbane.
