Friday 9th of August sees MH123 KUL-SYD (A332 9M-MTK) diverting to melbourne. A few other aircrafts are diverting due to winds in SYD with some departures being put on hold in SYD due to weather.

It took off from MEL at 1152 hours with SYD arrival suggested as 1305 this afternoon. 185 minutes late. The aircraft should then form MH122, the 1325 hours SYD - KUL with departure possible from about 1420 if all goes well.

Given the diversion, this isn't a bad result, showing how useful it can be for international airlines to schedule longer than minimum turnarounds when slot availability and costs permit.

 

[Melburnian1]

MH135 (A333 9M-MTK), the overnight KUL to BNE should arrive on Friday 16 August at 0906 hours, 46 late. The 0920 hours BNE - KUL, MH134 may be able to push back from approximately 1020 hours, showing again that when practical, it is preferable for international airlines to have longer than minimum turnarounds scheduled at outstations.

 

[Melburnian1]

[Melburnian1]

Thursday 22 August's MH135 from KUL down to BNE, the 2215 hours, took off at 0227 on Friday 23 so arrival for A333 9M-MTH should be 1157, 217 minutes late.

The KUL down to MEL MH149 is similar with arrival likely at 1107, 192 late for 9M-MTM. The return working, MH148 does not depart until a timetabled 1355 so this shows teh value to international airlines in allowing extra time on the ground should slot, staff and cost considerations make this feasible.
