Emirates Cancels Singapore to Melbourne Flights

[Chrystee]

It's just a waiting game at the moment until Emirates announces the date. I would think that will happen very soon. If I had to guess, I'd say that the last flight would be the end of March, to co-incide with the start of the northern Summer schedule.

On the other hand, unless you need the points for something else, there's no harm in booking your April flights if they're available -- the worst that can happen is that you'll get a full refund.

OK thank you. Will wait a week or 2 and see what happens

It appears that QF has pulled this flight from redemptions as of 9th Nov...

I have 4 J seats on this in July in the Mel-sin direction which tie into sin-hel.
Was about the only route I could find with enough space for the family so this is a bit of a pain.
Hopefully Qantas manage the cancellation so that I can at least keep the sin-hel legs alive but chances of that going up in smoke are pretty high too!

EK is still offering this flight for redemptions

Doubt they'd cancel it with such little notice. People would be potentially still on their holidays with their flight home cancelled - if this actually happened Emirates probably would have to even put award tickets on QF flights. But I think it'll still be end of March 2025.

Yeah… end of March would seem plausible from a commercial standpoint. It would cover the holidays, school holidays, and return of uni students for the start of 2025. The students returning often means flights are packed to the rafters in all classes.
