ALL QF's 330's to get lay flat Business seating - Including Domestic

[hutch]

Looking to book MNL-SYD first week of May and all QF19/20 pairs (excl May 1) are showing as non-refurb flights - that's 4 flight days in a row!

Good to see Manila getting all the refurb love right to the end...I swear once all 333 aircraft are updated QF will somehow find a way to put an old bird on this route regardless.

I hear that QF is bringing a couple of 767's out of retirement just for SYD-MNL

You should have put that post up yesterday morning, but without the emoticon.

QF19/20 has been almost entirely using the refurb aircraft so far this year, but there does indeed appear to be a number of flights in coming months using the old international 332 (36J/199Y Skybed 1) config.

Bring it on - I already suffered them to HNL on two occasions LOL!!!

I've put in for an upgrade on my next QF20 trip so refurb would be very nice as I am yet to sample the new J (my last 3 upgrade requests have failed on QF20 as J is always full)

 

[hutch]

Good signs... maybe even see SYD-MNL go daily!

Or they bring back that once a week BNE-MNL :shock:

YSSY reports that as well as QPG and EBV (already refurbed), HAs N380HA is also undergoing maintenance in BNE

 

[Christopher Campbell]

Yeah I saw that on yssy forum. Do we know what type of check EBV is having and when it should aprox be out?

When was that? Must have been over a year ago. QF has no B767 aircraft.

Technically not true, but it doesn't carry humans anymore

Pilotless technology?ðŸ

VH-EBV out from its minor work, but nothing back in.
VH-EBM operated QF652 PER-BNE last night, but just operated QF513 BNE-SYD this morning.

Nah ...

QF operate a 763 for cargo. Does not carry SLF to any extent.

 

[Melburnian1]

VH-EBG is on SYD - MNL QF19 today (Wednesday 13 April), and if I recall another A332 was on it on Monday 11 April (VH-EBL?)

Can't wait

Ugh... they should have done these birds first...

 

[mannej]

Ugh... they should have these birds first...

Nah - I think the millennium birds were a better choice to be completed first as a group.

 

[moa999]

VH-QPG the 9th A333 scheduled for a test flight this morning

 

[Christopher Campbell]

Will QPG be going to Singapore for a repaint after the test flight or straight into service? Also when is N380HA finish its maintened check? I assume EBM will enter refit before QPJ if QPG is going to Singapore first before re entering service?

 

[moa999]

That is a mystery - just have to wait and see I guess
QPH,QPI are also unpainted but younger.
The HA aircraft is 6yo, so would assume it's a 1mth+ check
