The 1930 NKG - SYD Friday 17 August 2018 redeye, MU727 (A332 B-8231) took off at the unattractive hour of 0322 on Saturday 18 so SYD arrival is suggested as 1544, 434 minutes tardy.

MU712, the day flight back to HGH should be able to commence pushback at about 1440 (200 minutes late) if all goes well, but the single runway operations in SYD may create a further delay in getting airborne.

In what must have been uncomfortable for travellers, MU749 on Wednesday 14 November, the 2205 hours ex WUH, did not take off until 0417 on Thursday 15. Not long enough for an hotel, but the worst time (into the small hours) for a delay. A332 B-5952 should arrive at 1724 instead of 1135 in SYD.

 

[Melburnian1]

On Thursday 22 November 2018, winds gusting to 57kmh at SYD have restricted most flights to runway 25, so not surprising that MU562 (A332 B-5941, the 1200 'high noon' SYD up to PVG) was still waiting at 1342 for takeoff. It will be at least an hour late arriving.
