Saturday 7 July 2018 sees JQ677, the 0200 DRW - MEL redeye that took off at 0313 (A321 VH-VWZ) arriving at 0721 hours, 41 minutes late. The aircraft was delayed yesterday morning in MEL for an hour on JQ432, the 1005 hours from MEL to OOL, and from then on its next four flights were an hour or more late.

It next looks to be on JQ560, the 0820 hours MEL - BNE so that should be able to depart on time, touch wood.

UPDATE: JQ560 took off at 0907. It is forecast to arrive in BNE at 1059 hours, 29 late. returning JQ563, the 1110 hours will be at least half an hour late as a consequence.

On Saturday morning 7 July 2018, MEL has been down to using a single runway (27) for the smaller plane flights so JQ508, the 1005 hours MEL up to SYD (A3321 VH-VWN) took off at 1059 and will be at least 35 late arriving.

JQ432 (1005 hours MEL up to OOL, A321 VH-VWW) was still in the early stages of taxiing at 1101 so a 45 minute plus tardy arrival is suggested.

A320 VH-VFX on the 1025 hours MEL - LST, JQ735 took off at 1111 so will be half an hour late at least.

A320 VH-VGZ on JQ605, the Thursday 12 July 2018, 0755 hours SYD down to AVV took off at 0847 so should arrive half an hour late at 1000.
 
Later on 12 July, JQ631, the 1235 hours OOL down to AVV that took off at 1322 hours with A320 VH-VGZ is likely to arrive at 1525, 35 late.

These flights do not show in the BITRE monthly list of routes re punctuality and cancellations as JQ is the only airline offering flights on this route, but it is not immune from running late.
