What happened to JQ8 tonight? Is the 787 in Singapore or did it not even get to Changi? I got moved onto QF tomorrow night
 
JQ7 got cancelled. There’s an ongoing issue with 787 cancellations and delays, plus with that route getting the cut soon, not great for passengers.
 
Yea. I had a last min trip so I didn’t get many options. I was just checking where each 787 has been and so many flights in the last 2 days has either been really late or cancelled.

I didn’t realize it was that bad.

I can’t seem to work out which Dreamliner was supposed to fly JQ7 and what happened though.

Oh well. I spent my $150 SGD on grand Mercure and will catch up with some mates on my way back
