[Melburnian1]

A380 A6-EDN on EK408, the 0300 hours DXB down to MEL on Tuesday 18 December that took off at 0420 hours should arrive at 0002 hours on Wednesday 19, 42 minutes tardy.

EK413 on Thursday 20 December 2018, the scheduled 2145 hours SYD to DXB (A380 A6-EUE) took off at about 2338, the seventh (at least) aircraft to breach curfew tonight following an afternoon and early evening of severe storms. I assume all have a dispensation.

 

[Melburnian1]

EK412 (A6-EUG) on Saturday 22 December 2018, the 0845 hours SYD - CHC took off at 0951 so arrival should be at 1435, 35 late.

 

[Melburnian1]

EK418, the BKK to SYD redeye should arrive on Saturday 29 December 2018 at 1046, 106 minutes late as on Friday 28 night it took off at 2149 despite a scheduled pushback at 1930 hours. The aircraft had been 21 minutes late arriving in BKK early yesterday evening, at 1816, so something must have gone wrong in the Thai capital.

This aircraft normally sits in SYD all day, departing back to BKK/DXB at 2020 hours so that ought still be punctual.

Monday 31 December 2018 sees EK419, the evening 2020 hours SYD to BKK (and on to DXB) with A380 A6-EEJ airborne at 2118 on a very stormy night, with arrival on 1 January 2019 estimated as 0216, 36 late.

 

[Melburnian1]

Saturday 5 January 2019 sees EK418 from BKK down to SYD (A380 A6-EEK), the 1930 hours Friday 4 departure that took off at 2040 arriving at 0936, 36 late.

 

[Melburnian1]

Emirates is ending EK418/EK419 from 1 June 2019 between BKK- SYD and return, but on Tuesday 15 January of more concern to passengers is how EK418, the 1930 hours Monday evening BKK - SYD that took off at 2159 should arrive at 1048, 108 minutes late. Aircraft is A380 A6-EEF.

 

[Melburnian1]

Saturday 19 January 2019 sees EK412 (A6-EUE, A388), the 0845 hours SYD across to CHC taking off at 1004, so expected arrival has become 1444, 44 late.

Thursday 31st Jan sees EK416 DXB-SYD (B777 A6-EGE) diverting to MEL due to Sydney's weather.

 

[Melburnian1]

BNE international had to be evacuated on Saturday night 2 February 2019 at about 2030 hours due to a man of Middle Eastern ethnicity allegedly making a false bomb threat and brandishing a knife at female family members.

EK431 (B773ER A6-ECL), the timetabled 2225 hours BNE up to DXB was airborne at 0133 on Sunday 3. Arrival is predicted as 0940 hours, 160 minutes behind the timetable.

 

[Melburnian1]

With storms in MEL during the early evening of Wednesday 6 February 2019, EK405, the 1845 hours MEL - SIN (B773ER A6-ENS) finally took off at 1946. Arrival should be on Thursday 7 at 0008 hours, 33 late.

 

[Melburnian1]

The CHC - SYD EK413 was caught up in the early evening Sydney storms of Friday 8 February 2019, with arrival for A380 A6-EUJ likely at around 2038, 33 late.

 

[Melburnian1]

The DXB down to SYD EK416 (B773ER A6-ECM) should arrive on Sunday 10 February 2019 at 2002 hours, 32 late.

 

[Melburnian1]

EK412, the Tuesday 12 February 1015 hours morning DXB - SYD (A380 A6-EUL) did not become airborne until 1201 so on Wednesday 13, arrival should be at 0743 hours, 43 late.

A6-EWE 777LR is still parked around the back of ADL but has just fired up. I’m guessing there will be two EK flights out of ADL tonight?

 

[jase05]

And it just departed ADL

 

[Melburnian1]

On Friday 22 February 2019, the DXB - SYD EK412 has A380 A6-EUG and should be at its destination gate at roughly 0840 hours, an even 100 minutes tardy.

 

[Melburnian1]

Tuesday 5 March 2019 finds EK412 from DXB to SYD (A380 A6-EUK) arriving at 0739 hours, 39 late.

 

[Melburnian1]

The MEL-bound EK406 and SYD-bound EK412 (respectively A380s A6-EEP and A6-EUJ) are delayed on Friday 8 March 2019 with predicted arrivals 0744 (74 minutes tardy) and 0806 (66 minutes down).

Later, EK412 continued to CHC, taking off at 0959 despite a scheduled pushback of 0845, so arrival will be about 65 minutes late, at 1505 mid afternoon.

 

[Melburnian1]

A380 A6-EUH on EK412, the Saturday 9 March 2019 scheduled 1015 hours DXB down to SYD did not become airborne until 1204. Sunday morning 10 March arrival should be 0811, 71 late.

A6-EEG (also an A380) on the DXB - BNE EK434 is worse, with takeoff of this 1025 hours flight at 1255. Sunday arrival is predicted also as 0811, 91 late (noting that 0811 in BNE is an hour behind the same time in SYD).
